Burying bad news

There is a remarkable amount of burying of bad news happening today, and not all on the part of the Government.
Having said that the opposition are right to try and highlight how details of the soaring cost of ID cards have been pushed out today.
But the Home Office is not alone in this shenanigans. Not to be outdone The Department for Work and Pensions chose today to announce the closure of three offices and the loss of 380 jobs.
I'm sure its purely a coincidence too that Barclays also decide that today would be good to announce the loss of more than 1,000 jobs in Britain.
