“What’s Your Number? And Do You Fancy A Kebab Afterwards?”It seems that the Home Office spent £3.5 MILLION of taxpayers’ money to advertise some fuckwit text messaging scheme whereby you could find out a phone number for your local plod.
Only 3,000 people used the sevice, which has been suspended prior to being quietly swept away altogether.
So that’s 3,500,000 divided by 3,000 equals £1,167 per text.
Great value for money. Even 118 118 is cheaper.
