As an employee of the government, my colleagues have spent the last few months being told that we're useless and unnecessary. We're too slow and inhibiting progress.
As we now observe these devotees of Dominic Cummings shit themselves, we step up to help support much of the infrastructure of the country. In full knowledge that the moment the storm abates, we'll be stamped on once again.
Ten years of squeezing has caused serious damage though. Mark my words, the next few weeks and months are going to be exceptionally tough. Not all the things that we all need to keep going will keep going.
The PM sent us a personal message of thanks this morning. A two minute ramble that you can hear without listening to it. But you know who I blame for this more than anyone? The ****ing idiots that highjacked the opposition meaning that there really was no choice at the last election. Deranged idealistic left wing dreamers that left the country with no option but to choose this awful mob.
When I watch our PM mumbling inadequacies a time of national crisis, fully aware of how fragile we are, I can only trust in the very people their society has chosen to undervalue: NHS staff, delivery drivers, civil servants, care home workers, supermarket workers, cleaners, council employees, etc.
