David Lammy found time to attend a civil service panel discussion on “Black career journeys” on the same day he claimed to be “outraged and appalled” at the accidental prison release of a second migrant. And just hours after he self-destructed in DPMQs like a nine-year-old…
Given the chaos of that day, you’d think the Deputy Prime Minister and Justice Secretary would at least try to be across the detail. Here is what Lammy was doing at 3pm on the 5th of November, according to invites sent to all Cabinet Office civil servants:
“To mark the end of Black History Month, join Deputy Prime Minister David Lammy and Cabinet Office Permanent Secretary and Civil Service Chief Operating Officer, Catherine Little, for this panel discussion on black career journeys in government.
They’ll be joined by:
Justin Placide, DESNZ (Co-Chair of The Civil Service Race Forum)
Matthew Otubu, Cabinet Office (Founder, Black Politicos)
Saher Jones, DWP (Co-Chair, DWP National Race Network)
This session will explore the career journeys of the panelists, the career progression cycle in the Civil Service, and ways that leaders in the Civil Service can support greater workplace equality and inclusion.”
