When I started looking into this three years ago, it was heartbreaking to see the way certain politicians were treating our dedicated civil servants like they were disposable. And today's news only deepens my concern.

I was shocked when Health Secretary Wes Streeting criticized center-left politicians for fostering an 'excuses culture' that blames civil servants instead of holding them accountable. This isn't just about political posturing; it's a real human issue, and I can't help but wonder how much more damage will be done.

Streeting’s remarks come as no surprise to me. When previous administrations have been quick to blame and slow to support the people working tirelessly for our wellbeing, it's devastating. We need to stand up for those who are often forgotten in the political wrangling.

The health sector is one of the most crucial areas where civil servants make a real difference every day. Yet instead of acknowledging their hard work and dedication, some politicians continue to undermine them. It feels like we're always on the brink of losing the very people who keep us healthy and safe.

So why are we so quick to criticize those who put in long hours under difficult conditions? Is it because it's easier than addressing real issues or could it be that these attacks serve a political purpose?

The natural alternative, as always, is to support and uplift our public servants. We need them more than ever right now, especially in healthcare where the stakes are so high.

It’s heartbreaking when I think about how many lives could be impacted if we don’t change this narrative. Our civil servants deserve better from us.

If you’re like me and find yourself feeling frustrated by these attacks on our public sector workers, please take a moment to share this with someone who needs it.
