UK Civil Service at war with its own government

This story from the Guardian gives some idea of the brutality and cruelty of the new UK government.

If they do this to their own people, if they treat their Civil Service in this way how at all will they treat Ireland?

This is a shocking story. Sir Philip Rutnam resigns because of the behaviour of home secretary Priti Patel. He accuses her of crass behaviour in the department. Rutnam intends suing the government for constructive dismissal.

But this is no change of behaviour from Johnson and his team. It's par for the course.
