    The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

    But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

      - I do business cases for enormous public sector IT projects that subsequently go horrendously over budget and take twice as long as originally forecast
      - Then I do governance and management reviews to help them work out why the project went wrong
      - Then I do business cases for an enormous public sector IT project to replace the last one...

            Not at the same time, different contracts.

            Also rail systems, jet engines and air traffic (briefly and never going back)
            All of those are the only contracts where I would consider buying liability insurance for my company - does the certification allow you some degree of seperation from the liability?

                  Thanks for the reply.

                  I'm not looking to be mucked around so I'll tread carefully.
