Correct. Those 4 genuinely stand alone.
I love it when Brunner pops up in my timeline. Yes, good spot. I think a similar concept exists in some Philip K Dick story but I can't remember which one.

Yeah, really good @jasonkitcat.bsky.social. The bit that had me nodding along the most was your point about now being the time to experiment and learn. My worry is that a lot of people are betting the farm on something very uncertain.
Really enjoyed this piece, which sums up some of the issues I've been wrestling with, particularly the expectation of 'tech = savings!!!', and the spam-vs-anti-spam we're likely to see.
How many are you eating today?
This is the Gov looking for your input on the BBC. It takes a while to complete (15/20 mins) but it’s pretty comprehensive and covers most aspects.
Please share. I’m surprised many people haven’t seen it yet.

We're looking to fill a couple of Senior Content Designer roles across the OPG and Probation digital teams www.jobtrain.co.uk/justicedigit...
We've had user research participants telling us how they use LLMs to summarise their NHS App health records for them.
Yeah, I love an upset. There's still time though, and Ireland are looking good against the Aussies.
This T20 World Cup has been brilliant so far and that #SAvAFG match was the best of the lot.
That was brilliant. What drama!
Tell that to the buses on London's 315 route.
In January I went to UK GovCamp and the Japanese Embassy, and I thought about all of the big things that could go wrong in 2026.

I tried to change the site's address on the website from "Sutton, Surrey" to "Sutton, London" and was put firmly in my place by some senior folk.
Will they finally admit that the site is in London, not Surrey? I lost that battle when I worked there, despite Sutton having been part of Greater London since 1965.
I hope the team working on that project is nicknamed The Lighthouse Family.
'Kickstarter' is a new phrase on me, for this kind of thing anyway. It's always pilot, pathfinder, trial, vanguard... Someone got their Thesaurus out!
Yes. I was thinking it might work better if you change the first F to Focus and fix a thing.
If you’re travelling from london to GovCamp this seems like the best option. Marylebone route has rail replacement bus. #ukgc26 #ukgovcamp #govcamp
Next departures:
08:35 – 10:38
09:02 – 11:15
PSA for those heading from London to Birmingham for @ukgovcamp.com - all trains from Euston currently cancelled, head to St Pancras and change at Leicester... #govcamp
I'm doing stints on Reception and Cloakroom if you want to come and say hi. Hopefully see you there.
I'm doing a couple of volunteer shifts (registration and cloakroom) which could be a great time to bend my ear.
I am. See you there.
As well as sorting out the last minute details for GovCamp 2026 we're also planning for the long term. We want to set up GovCamp as an official non-profit company. To do that we need a Board of Trustees.
We've previously asked for volunteers but, while good people, they're all straight white men.
Mine too. I think it might have something to do with this series from NSPCC: www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

You would love it. I got the tip from www.ianvisits.co.uk/articles/smi... a few years ago but this was the first time I was able to go.
Unbelievably, #DuvetKnowItsChristmas generates such good will on social media that over the years we've raised somewhere approaching a quarter of a million quid for homeless charities. If you can spare a bob or two, sling some to Centrepoint, and here's the link: www.gofundme.com/f/duvet-know...
