Sorry can't give you a name but according to the London Ambulance Service it's a female who has suffered minor injuries.

Dont know who it was, but it was a woman who worked in the post room of the building. Apparently Capita processes fines for the Congestion charge so someone has a grudge against it. Again today there was another letter bomb recieved by a tax and accounting office, two people injured.
Someone definately does not like this government.

Yes, Capita is a huge company with fingers in hundreds of pies. They are famous for messing up big contracts, like the NHS computer services and the child support agency computer stuff too. They're pretty much hated by anyone who comes into contact with them.

I don't know the name of the type of company but generally, when a company wants to outsource a function (such as IT or recruitment), they'll outsource to another company. Capita is one of these companies that just happens to have it's hand in a lot of functions i.e. they are not a specialist company only doing IT or one specific function, they will also perform a number of functions. The Civil Sevice outsources a lot of work to Capita.
