Only GBP 26 billion?
Taken from an analyst's comment about the current UK economy:
Some focus on UK Labour's expenses even as UK moves toward a elections before June; Independent: A series of botched IT projects has left taxpayers with a bill of more than £26bn for computer systems that have suffered severe delays, run millions of pounds over budget or have been cancelled altogether. An investigation by The Independent has found that the total cost of Labour's 10 most notorious IT failures is equivalent to more than half of the budget for Britain's schools last year. Parliament's spending watchdog has described the projects as "fundamentally flawed" and blamed ministers for "stupendous incompetence" in managing them.

I remember in junior school when we got our first ever rubber keyboard.
Those were the days my friend, those were the days....
