Quite common in Gov unfortunately - If its a large "programme" then you generally have a bit more leeway (but have to fend off the 12 year olds from Big 4 consultancies / "delivery partners" hell bent on hitting incorrectly scoped milestones whatever the cost, or identifying non issues via risk roles), if its a bit more bau stuff then your Line / Reporting Manager is just a person - some are cool, some aren't.
Suck it up, chill and invoice or try to rescope the role / leave.
Its been a while since I have been in Gov, but there used to be a trend that FS contractors frequently chucked the towel in after a few weeks due to the pace of work (slow), the scope of the work (anything) and their inability to actually do anything without manager, managers manager, sub committee, committee approval
