Both newts and housing, please. Scientific technical editor. Personal account, views my own.
The report is not very long and reading it rather than a lot of the conversation on here is much more worthwhile. Lots of people discussing the issues here getting things wrong because they haven't read the report.

In my view, outsourcing to a single web developer in this way should have been a signal to management that further probing of this process was warranted.

Report does say that this was on the risk register.

Misconfigured WordPress plugin, because the scale and importance of the task wasn't provided for adequately. I feel really sorry for the staff.

I think he's using "neurodivergent" in the frame of being labelled, whereas the emphasis from those of us who understand ourselves to be neurodivergent tends to be more about having an explanation for our differences.

I have questions about CIC regulation in all of this.

The Home Office’s absurd taxi bill results entirely from its insistence on forcing people to move round the country without choice or notice, & to live on the breadline so they can’t afford public transport. That Mahmood didn’t know about it till the BBC told her shows how appallingly the HO is run.

I used to just turn up to the station, buy a ticket, and then travel so this really does seem like my personal ticket admin went up and up.

Every time I'm on a LNER train someone's app fails to load their ticket, so I always print my eTicket.
