In today’s episode of #FixTheForms, @peterkwells.com muses on one of the weirder manifestations of current “signing ceremonies” Note to self: must get “signatures and signing ceremonies” further up the list of posts to prune and tune. On the whole, it’s still ok. The problem is …

I really love a traditional village show and this thread is a very fine selection of many of the best elements. Extra points for the obscure class in the competition where there’s only one entry but the entry does not get first prize. (My grandad used to grow prize onions and chrysanthemums).

As many of us wonder what’s happening with what used to be GDS, the “they forgot it existed” explanation is the most plausible one for me. Ministers now focus on “give lots of money to AI techbros”. “Digital” has the same level of attention as basket weaving - nice but historic. #GovDesign
Mark O’Neill 🐻I beg readers not to try and work out why parts of government are being moved between departments. THERE ARE NO LOGICAL REASONS! DECC was made part of BEIS simply because May forgot it existed.
