Civil service union vows to fight up to 1,885 job cuts at Foreign Office
The Guardian
|October 18, 2025
Almost 2,000 civil servants at the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office face the risk of redundancy, with the biggest union for government workers vowing to fight the cuts.
The PCS union said it has been told that 1,885 jobs at the second highest level, known as delegated grades, are “at risk”, in addition to redundancy notices that have already been issued to some senior civil servants.
The union, which has about 200,000 members, linked the cuts to the government’s decision to reduce the foreign aid budget and accused the department of failing to follow civil service protocol by putting a number on job cuts before consulting.
