It will make Britain “nimble like an Aston Martin”.
It is a milestone in the government’s pledge to axe 91,000 staff in a war on Whitehall inefficiency.
The big-hitter told HOAR on Sunday: “The British state needs to be slick and nimble like an Aston Martin not slow and bloated like a clapped out old Trabant.”
An Aston is driven by James Bond. Former East Germany’s Trabant was dubbed the world’s worst car.
The deal must be signed by the next PM.
Overall he has drawn up plans to save taxpayers a whopping £4billion over the next few years.
