The UK public didn't trust G4S, but they kept getting contracts.
Nobody trusted TCS, but that didn't stop them from getting large gobs of UK IT contracts.

(coming soon to a Porsche near you...)

Why wouldnt they? no senior Post Office executives or Fujitsu employees have gone to prison after Horizon IT scandal.
Also, Fujitsu is ICL (or at least ICL is Fujitsu), which provided pretty much all government computing services for decades, including to the military and spy agencies. So they're very deeply embedded in the UK government.

Besides that, ICL is sound, old chap. Jenkins from ICL and I were at Eaton together, you can rely on him to do the right thing.

Our government are idiots. They also trust Israel.
