Asked to elaborate, he said: "There was a course offered within the Cabinet Office for people that was to "Check Yo Privilege"."The one on witchcraft I think was offered on the Civil Service intranet, fortunately out of hours so I don't think the cost to the taxpayer was huge."What we want people to do is to learn how to be good fraud investigators, which is an area I have some responsibility for, or how to be good commercial negotiators.

"As prime minister I will run a leaner, more efficient, more focused Whitehall that prioritises the things that really matter to people and is laser-focused on frontline services," Ms Truss pledged.Civil servants told Britain is 'racist' as white staff urged to not oppose ethnic minorities
