PC Pro have kindly stated that my quotation about the Government and IT was one of the top ten IT quotes of 2007: (see link)
9. John Hemming MP
The loss of 25 million child benefit records on a couple of CDs was an open-goal for opposition politicians. But hand the match ball to Liberal MP, John Hemming, who said the government couldn't even be trusted with CD burners and warned of worse to come.
"Normally what happens is that we close the door after the horse has bolted, but in this case we're leaving the door open for more horses to bolt."
He wasn't wrong, was he?
