Serious Scandal by Sirius
Creative Commons Attribution-No Derivative Works 4.0
THE previous part spoke of the brain drain that had reduced Sirius 'Open Source' to almost nothing; even before pension fraud was exposed (we broke the story here this past spring) the company had almost nothing left in terms of physical assets, monetary assets, human resources, and clients. It's just milking what's left of contracts signed or renewed last year.
"...Sirius received millions of pounds from the British government and the government oughtn't look the other way when people who worked on government computer systems become victims of employment crimes and embezzlement or just plain old fraud."The really obnoxious thing is the two-faceted 'coverup' (to use the term loosely) by entities that should know better and should do better. If the British authorities are so desperate to save face and spare themselves negative publicity, then they should hurry up and act, showing strength of law, accountability, and drastic consequences. Instead, based on the lack of interaction (also my Member of Parliament is being ignored), it certainly seems like this scandal will just deepen, implicating a growing network of facilitators and enablers. This scandal isn't about just Sirius anymore; Sirius received millions of pounds from the British government and the government oughtn't look the other way when people who worked on government computer systems become victims of employment crimes and embezzlement or just plain old fraud. ⬆
