Plundering the Public Sector: How New Labour are Letting Consultants run off with GBP70 billion of our Money

David Craig,Richard Brooks

In their crusade to modernise public services, New Labour are giving vast amounts of taxpayers’ money to management and IT systems consultants. They are everywhere - the Inland Revenue, MoD, Education Department, NHS and Downing Street. But are these management wizards giving us schools and hospitals that will be the envy of the world, or are they just siphoning off billions that should have been spent on the frontline services? And the biggest and most expensive consulting catastrophe of them all may still be yet to come - up to GBP 30 billion taken out of patient care to pay for the new NHS computer system. Isn’t it time to ask how our money is really being spent?
