The euphoria which accompanied the General Election victory of 2019 with the promise 'to get Brexit done' has all but evaporated and the much anticipated root-and-branch reform of central government has simply not materialised. We have waited long enough:
"The next prime minister must remember those two results in 2016 and 2019 and finally take on the behemoth known as the Blob."

This year alone Whitehall lawyers were told to imagine a “gay Japanese grandfather” in a workshop aimed at combatting hidden prejudices, DHSC officials were invited to “safe space” sessions to raise concerns about the government’s policy on trans conversion therapy and Treasury workers were asked to a “Male allyship” event to stop sexism."

"To restore public trust in our bureaucracy and the sacred baton of Whitehall impartiality, Liz Truss and Rishi Sunak must get serious about dismantling this industry."
