If we can prevent the government from wasting the labor of the people
under the pretense of caring for them, they will be happy. - Thomas Jefferson

Freedom of information isn't always free

The City Council of Leicester (UK) was forced to consider and admit that they are unprepared for a zombie attack. Because they don't have bigger problems to solve, a 'concerned citizen' filed a Freedom of Information request. As no such information was available, they instead had the head of Information Governance announce their lack of planning in regards to this fictitious threat.

I don't know about you, but I hope my city council is working on far more important things. On the plus side, this couldn't have taken up any more than 5 minutes of City Council time. And I hope the chuckle gained makes up for the few minutes lost...
