July 31, 2009 by Neville Hobson 

Has the government finally got it right re the controversial identity card scheme for the UK? The Home Office is now talking less about counter-terrorism and more about easing travel in Europe, says eWeek Europe.

IABC employment survey paints mixed picture

July 31, 2009 by Neville Hobson 

The results of the latest IABC member survey on employment issues carried out in June indicates that over 14% of members have lost their jobs in the last 12 months.

Trust is coming back, says Edelman

July 30, 2009 by Neville Hobson 

In January, PR firm Edelman published their 2009 Trust Barometer survey of trust and credibility in business and government (PDF download), an annual survey conducted in 20 countries. The global picture six months ago was, broadly speaking, one of pessimism and distrust almost across the board in business and government. It showed a snapshot picture of people’s opinions when they were asked in December 2008 what they thought, reflecting sentiment at that time about what had been going on in … [Read more...] about Trust is coming back, says Edelman
