  1. @ soviet70 The Civil Service provides services directly to people all over the country, including: paying benefits and pensions. running employment services. running prisons etc - and they are supposed to be impartial. Which they in this present decade are not.

  2. @ Soviet70 Of course. That’s why they are referred to as the ‘civil’ service. But primarily they are the citizens servants. You do know that means us, right ?

  4. @soviet70 “Civil servants are blocking the government’s efforts to cut EU legislation after Brexit because they hold a “Remain bias”, attorney general Suella Braverman has claimed. The cabinet minister said she had battled with officials who are unable “to conceive of the possibility of life outside of the EU”. “Some of the biggest battles you face as a minister are, in the nicest possible way, with Whitehall and internally with civil servants, as opposed to your political battles in the chamber,” Ms Braverman - that should do you.
