Carillion hates you and your kids

08/11/06 - 0 comments
The aggressive PFI company Carillion has closed the doors to it's lottery-funded football pitches at West Exe Young Offenders Institute as it would cut into profits.

The money grabbing bastards at Carillion, who in the last 6 months reportedly made £24.7m profit, are no longer prepared to employ care-taking staff for the sports pitch in Alphington which was used every week by dozens of football teams outside school hours.

The teams have been forced to find new grounds to play on, often miles from home and through busy traffic, since developer Carillion took over the reorganisation of Exeter schools PFI and denied everyone access.

The PFI has a further 26 years left on it's chokehold over Exeter schools, including West Exe, Priory, St James', St Luke’s at Monkerton and Bradley Rowe Primary School.

Over the next 3 years Carillion are hoping to convert the buildings into high security prisons, turfing out all students, as they don't make a profit.
