Possibly, even probably.
However that's up to the courts.
The argument here is whether you can make even the smallest point to Mason without him accusing you of gassing Jews.
The truth is, that the civil servants, however grand, are there to carry out the wishes and instructions of democratically elected members of parliament, even if they have went against their advice.
If you don't like your job, you can always leave.
I don't know who Scott Benton is, he probably is a gormless w'anker.
However, his statement as quoted by you is correct, no matter how repulsive the policy may be it's their job to carry it out.
World beating again, what's there not to like?
“There is no question now that the model we have put forward, I’m convinced is world class and a world first, and it will be used as a blueprint going forward, there’s no doubt about that,” Patel said.

The obvious thing would be to tow them back to France, but the Frogs would object to that.
And civil servants are supposed to do what ministers tell them to, we can't have a situation where unelected officials are running the government.
No it’s not & Im really struggling with other ways to explain it.
Let’s say Patel wakes up one morning and decides that all opticians had to travel to Glasgow to receive compulsory gender reassignment surgery, as it’s bound to be a vote winner. There was no mention of this policy in the manifesto she stood on. It wasn’t debated on in parliament & it’ll cost the tax payer 1 million per optician, to put tits & a frock on them.
Would you consider that democratic?
Opticians mostly do have tits and frocks.
Different argument all together.
I went on a bus this morning without wearing a mask despite my democratically elected leader telling me I wasn't allowed to.
Basically she can stuff her masks up her a'rse.
However
If I was a civil servant and she told me to take action against people not wearing masks on busses, then I would have to do what I was told.
Either that or resign my position and then tell her to stuff her masks up her a'rse.

If you’re not living life on the edge, you’re taking up too much room. I bet the other bus passengers got a real thrill watching you travel maskless.
You’re still completely missing the point
