We have tried to remind Government servants that they are servants of the public and have restored discipline in Central Government offices.

I think there's a couple of things going on.

The idea is that the politicians are working for the people. They're public servants.
I know it may be hard to imagine given how broken and gridlocked our politics truly are, but from the White House to, yes, Congress, the government is filled with hard-working, idealistic public servants working incredibly hard on tough issues, trying to make people's lives better and move the country, and our world, forward.
