      Top civil servants asked to draw up plans for job cuts of up to 40% in each department amid cost of living crisis

      Top civil servants across Whitehall are to be asked to draw up plans for how they would deliver personnel cuts of up to 40% in each of their departments, Sky News understands. Two senior government sources have said the Cabinet Office is poised to write to all permanent secretaries asking them to model what would be required to slash staffing numbers in three different scenarios: cuts of 20%, 30% and 40%. It follows a call from Boris Johnson for a 20% reduction in staff - 90,000 people - across Whitehall.

      Florida appeals court reinstates DeSantis congressional map

      A new congressional map drawn by Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis' staff that could diminish the state's Black representation in Washington was reinstated by an appeals court Friday, a week after a lower court judge said the map was unconstitutional. The 1st District Court of appeals ruled Judge Layne Smith erred when he ordered a replacement map be used for the 2022 election. The DeSantis map would likely boost the number of Florida seats held by Republicans, while also making it difficult for Democratic U.S. Rep. Al Lawson to maintain his seat in a north Florida district where nearly half the voters are Black.
