You are appreciated for the heart and effort you put in, even if this clueless short-sightedness of this government does not recognise efforts to keep Aotearoa functioning as a cohesive society. Forcing cuts in this timeframe has lead to poor departmental decisionmaking, has not allowed adequate spreading of the impact and does not recognise the reality of the increased scope and complexity of what the public service does in this unequal times. This injustice will continue to be protested by myself and others.
