Blame it on the Blob: How civil servants are bearing the brunt of Tory government failings
It seems Raab’s departure and his searing attack on the civil service, could be used by the Tories to rig the system by weeding out the liberals, demonise them for their own failings, and appoint ‘their own,’ as a means of driving policies forward to deliver on their own political objectives.

How important will the socially conservative voter be in winning the next election?
