In my experience, as poorly as low-paid and middle-ranking public servants are treated, that's how entitled, sanctimonious, and priggish the very senior ones tend to be - with honourable exceptions, of course. "How DARE the PM shuffle ME out?" is a puzzle which often answers itself.
Understand that Wormald, UK's most senior civil servant, told perm secs he was standing down at 10am y'day - and left the building the same day.
Mood among senior civil servants said to be "sulphurous" over way they believe he been treated.

The Electoral Commission's verdict is frank: "These provisions would not reduce the risk of foreign money entering British politics through companies."

There's some welcome news in this, but government hugely overstates it in claiming plans will end ability for foreign actors to use money to interfere in our elections. They will still be able to; in some cases they'll need a willing UK accomplice... www.gov.uk/government/n...
Tougher rules on political interference to keep UK elections secure
Foreign actors will no longer be able to use their money to interfere in the UK’s elections, as part of the biggest expansion of democratic participation in a generation

In Reform-led Worcestershire Council we are planning the highest council tax rise in England. Yes, we promised to lower taxes, but only a gullible fuckwit would believe that, right? 😉 Vote Reform, get what you deserve!

So the big announcement was a plan to dismantle the Treasury and have a department for growth in Birmingham.
Excuse me whilst I stifle a yawn.
At least no one can label this as ‘populist’…
