You shouldn’t let your disability hold you back or define you! Disabled sportspeople are SO inspiring! Unless you need benefits to live in which case you must remain indoors and look miserable or else some lickspittle bootlicking jobsworth will cut you off.
The guy's literally got one leg, but that's apparently one too many for the DWP to consider him disabled www.mirror.co.uk/money/dwp-fi...

I guess some jobsworth is unfamiliar with this children’s classic and misunderstood the sense of “Hellebore”, putting 2+2 together and getting 666

The fictitious enthusiasm for someone is going to be overwhelming. It may as well be for the epitome of the 21st century Southern briefcase jobsworth gobshite.
Genuine idiot panicking, or just more playacting bullshit intended to culminate in the leader’s office conceding to a wave of fictitious enthusiasm for coronation of PM Wes unopposed, to calm the angry market gods? It’s usually the most idiotic, insulting and tiresome option, so I’d guess the latter

Did the word “jobsworth” originate on That’s Life!? Or is it older?
I remember they used to have a feature with its own theme tune: “Jobsworth! Jobsworth! It’s more than me job’s worth…”

‘Beyond ironic’: Reform-led council says flags must come down so Christmas lights can go up
Kent county council says union flags and flags of St George must come off street lights because of safety concerns
A Reform-led council has ruled that union and St George’s flags must come down in order for a village’s traditional Christmas lights to go ahead, in a decision described as “beyond ironic”.
Harrietsham parish council was told by Kent county council – whose leader once vowed not to remove flags put up “unilaterally by the people of Kent” – that flags must come down from street lights before festive lights go up because of safety concerns. Continue reading...

Quite apart from the general WTF at all of this, apparently it took *three* enforcement officers to tell this bemused woman not to pour coffee down the drain and issue a fine. Sometimes I miss That's Life and its Jobsworth awards.
I feel Thames Water should have been asked to comment.

The thing about the English is that they derive extreme pleasure from enforcing this petty jobsworth stuff but they turn a blind eye to actual systemic crimes
She should offer to remove her titles. In fact this is how I'm going to respond to any fine from now on.

It's also really stupid because if you were going to go and buy an over the counter medicine to purposely overdose your child, you'd be more likely to leave said child at home and just buy it anyway. The pharmacists must go to jobsworth school

Food shortages, prescription med shortages, skyrocketing cost of living, with plummeting standard of living. Whilst politicians get wealthier and ignore the chaos that is being created around us by every jobsworth & busybody, especially Tories over the last 14 years.

Avocado/feta buzz abruptly wrecked by the absolute state of a German jobsworth at the Ryanair gate. I wasn't even his target, but he plunged everyone within earshot into a downer. This airline continues to be our national shame.

Absolutely this. My last one I had a really solid case for but it was a judgement call, and I did run into a complete jobsworth, and I basically just stood there and very politely smiled and answered ‘but I’m here now and I’d really like a vaccine please?’ repeatedly until they just jabbed me 🤣

Most odd, perhaps query it with passport office in case some jobsworth refuses to accept it, damning your travel plan.
