Amazed to see a government minister on the BBC reassuring Carrilion workers that those working on public programmes will still be paid and should continue to work as normal.

Meanwhile back in the real world Carrillion workers have had credit lines stopped, their procurement cards stopped, trade accounts suspended and leased assets withdrawn. I'm not sure if the minister understands what liquidation means or what happens to the assets that these workers depend on.

On the subject of 'liquid' a Carrillion worker on public contract found himself having to pay out of his own pocket for a full tank of diesel for his work van as the company payment card had been blocked this morning.
