Unfortunately, Arthur, your viewpoint is not congruent with actuality.

A close friend of mine worked for a comms consultancy company (done lots of work for MOD and lots of foreign Governments in this area), and he was asked around 3 years ago to look at revamping the IT Infrastructure/Networks in the Houses. His month long review found huge issues that needed resolving before the IT work could begin, such as removal of lots and lots of asbestos, and rotting supporting walls/beams/etc. - even then, a rough quote was around £2 billion.

The current quote is in the range of £3 to £6 billion.

btw, is there anywhere you haven't worked?

btw2, what gold?
