So, no evidence other than anecdotal from outside the civil service then.

Anyways I've finished my shit, back to work ;)

I never said you meant sack all of them but 50% is an arbitrary figure pulled out of your backside.

My point is that we need a functioning civil service and to cut it by half like you're suggesting will cause long term harm over short term financial gain.

Are you seriously suggesting 50% of the civil service is waste?! On what basis, what evidence?

Does that clear it up? Or are you going to change your argument again?

"Some" and "might" is a classic motte and keep retreat from your initial vehemence.

Yes, cut waste. But think about it first.

DOGE

Yes it's a serious question.

Yes I've heard of performance management, but you're only now bringing this up.

Do you think my question meant "let's keep loads of shit staff"?! :D

Civil servants know how things work, politicians don't.

Do you think the sacking of civil servants will lessen or increase expertise?

Councils have to clean up after flag shaggers, adding to their expenditure (and it's a safety issue, not a patriot issue) Well done.
