SERCO
Hashed tag
NOT content with hauling septuagenarian protester Gaie Delap

off to prison just before Christmas after bungling her electronic tag, the Serco officers who cocked things up also lied to the Ministry of Justice (MoJ), claiming she had refused to wear it.
In November 2022 Delap, then 75, helped to cause traffic chaos when she climbed a gantry above the M25 as part of a Just Stop Oil protest. She was sentenced last August to 20 months in prison after pleading guilty to causing a public nuisance. (By contrast, tractor drivers who clogged up Westminster streets to protest at the farm inheritance tax last month faced no charges.)
