Not voted in, not selected by staff, not representative of staff. Innovo were dumped by their first sugar-daddy TMC and, without any consultation, have hopped into bed with wealthy partner number two, GeoAmey. There's nothing "mutual" about the arrangement other than it (a) probably makes the self-selected managers a few quid and feel important & (b) allows GeoAmey a shot at another probation area.<br /><br />There's nowt 'mutual' for staff. Its possibly a more honest state of affairs if Sodexo moved in and cleared the decks, a la HMP Northumberland.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8578343158425987632.post-1397466053020841032014-09-04T23:11:08.336+01:002014-09-04T23:11:08.336+01:00Morals and Integrity have not been akin with the G...Morals and Integrity have not been akin with the Greater Manchester leadership for some time.

Who are the chiefs? Do they have any integrity left? They may have gone into this with some naïve belief that it was their staff's best option. They must see now that it's causing more harm than good.
