There were 102 special advisers as of Mar 2020, down from 108 in Nov 2019 assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/upl…
But by 15 Dec the number was back up to 114 (incl 4 part-time); weird that the doc lists total from 9 mths ago
This may be a record, which will gladden the heart of any Blairite who remembers Tory attacks on “politicisation” before 2010
It is a record. It's actually 116 special advisers, incl 4 part time, so maybe 114 ftes. vs previous record 108 last year & 107 in 2015
