An expensive education at Eton and Edinburgh University, yet Danny Kruger still manages to make pigshit look intelligent in comparison.

"A Reform UK plan to cut the size of the civil service would involve sacking more planning officers than exist and getting rid of at least two-thirds of the psychologists who support prison officers’ welfare, it has emerged.

The policy paper, led by the Reform MP Danny Kruger and published in December, promises to save more than £5bn a year by cutting civil service roles, with the full-time-equivalent (FTE) headcount falling by 13%."

One of the departments I worked in was forced to have a review, which they had to pay for from their usual budget.
One of the recommendations was to cut more staff than worked in that section. They confused PT with FTE.
Not the only error, and they thought some of our core work was optional.

A few weeks later I was behind two young men who were discussing how to fake it when they didn't know what they were doing - they worked for the same company.

@tiggy Those 'young men' have no integrity. As a self-employed person I have turned away work I thought I'd make a bad job of rather than try winging it.
