I cannot resist one last little passage from Sir Humphrey.
Good night.

Just sitting here, bleebling to myself in a corner, because, frankly, trying to pass comment on the contemporary scene is like watching a car crash in slow motion over and over again.
Well, what can I say?
ReplyDeleteSir H's comments made me chuckle and they really evoke wonderful and exasperating memories of my time in the Civil Service!
For £7,000 of "wasted" taxpayers' money read £7m+ wasted on Consultants' fees and expertise(?); Private Finance Initiative(s) (PFI) introduction of work procedures geared toward manufacturing of 'spark plugs' rather than deal with people and general deskilling of the work force within the Civil Service - So Thank you so much T. Blair, G. Brown and A. Darling - and apologies for sounding off (slightly), Innocent, but the whole ethos of "things can only get better!" (YouTube and D.ream anyone?) circa 1997 et seq - makes me very angry and you wouldn't like me when I'm angry......!!
Pax (honestly!)
