As government debates when to pay its contractors, many of them in turn are trying to calculate what they can get away with.
The IgNobel prize must go to megacorp Serco who wrote to their suppliers for money, not-so-subtly pointing out that:
"Like the Government, we are looking to determine who our real partners are that we can rely upon. Your response will no doubt indicate your commitment to our partnership but will also be something I will seriously consider in our working relationship as Serco continues to grow."
Doh!
