UK government quietly awards travel firm £1.6bn contract for asylum barges and accommodation

An Australian travel firm previously slammed for its handling of Covid quarantine hotels has been quietly handed a £1.6bn contract covering the UK’s new asylum accommodation ships, The Independent can reveal.

Corporate Travel Management (CTM) was put in charge of the lucrative two-year arrangement in February, weeks before the government revealed it would use a barge as its first offshore accommodation for asylum seekers.

The characteristics of good management and strong leadership are completely different from the characteristics of bullying.

Too many people suggesting that it's all on a spectrum or that there's a fine line.

That is insulting to all the excellent leaders who manage to inspire high standards without bullying.

I look forward to the UK government SMS alert test tomorrow. In Central London. During the London Marathon. With hundreds of thousands more people than usual.

Yeah, this isn't going to end well, is it?

A link to a video by the charity Refuge. If you have a hidden phone, this will help keep it safe when they test the new alert system next month. "Managing Emergency Alerts on your phone to stay safe if you're experiencing domestic abuse"

Dear UK , if you don't like being compared to the Nazis, then stop adopting Nazi policies and slogans. It really is that simple.

Even an organisation as temporally challenged as the cannot have failed to notice that we're living in the 21st century. Nowadays, using the phrase "please wait five working days" is *exactly* the same as "please wait five days", since Sat & Sun are working days too.

Listening to this week was a reminder of the reasons for . From the 19thC London’s liquid sewage was pumped into the Thames; solids from 8 million Londoners were dumped in the North Sea. This went on until 1998 (!) when the brought the law to , and insisted on safe alternatives. And what did do as soon as it could? They let the water co’s start pumping sewage into our waterways again. That’s what Brexit means: Shit in our rivers, shit on our beaches.
