(2) @hilarycottam.bsky.social 's #RadicalHelp should be required reading for all new civil servants working in policy AND digital - alongside @richardpope.org 's #Platformland. We can't have future government without a well designed combination of digital technology and human centered interactions.

On top of how much this is contrary to #GaaP / #PlatformLand thinking I can't help but wonder, once again, what *all* grant giving services have in common and could be brought together.

Chapter 7 of #Platformland my favourite yet - thanks @richardpope.org for these seeds that resonate with recent thinking/ writing I’ve been doing🙏 I’ll reference a few in a short talk I’m doing at @sdingov.bsky.social Virtual conference soon: ‘Digital by default or human by nature?’

A blueprint for modern digital government (HTML)

An extremely quick scan of this shows a lot to like. I am disappointed though in the lack of clear commitment to #Platformland basics.

Under a GOV.UK One Login Account a *single* instance of:
* Task list
* Calendar
* Record

To go with the Digital Wallet.

A credentials wallet is one of the major components in #Platformland along with task lists and journals.

It's great to see but the review was done in *April*! Why is this the first time I've heard about it? Where's the #WorkingInTheOpen ?

How would we actually approach this for busy constituency MPs? What's the real appetite? Is someone going to find time to read #Platformland or a group they can reach out to to ask technology specific questions that isn't beholden to the civil service or the private sector? Or something else?

Secondly, the Data Value Cycle Ben included looks great but doesn't explicitly say that data must be stored and owned separately from the services that collect and edit it.

This is a change we have to make if we ever want to begin the kind of "data normalisation" Richard mentions in #Platformland.

Thanks David and that's very kind of you. All good and I hope you are well too. I really believe this work will happen eventually and reading @richardpope.org 's excellent #platformland only reinforces that.

The way to Platformland How do you refactor a country?

How do you refactor a country?

Whilst top-down reform on a national scale is obviously the road to hell, I think we should take the #Platformland invitation to radicalism seriously.

Also, relatively speaking, prototyping is very cheap. GDS building some of the things @richardpope.org writes about in #Platformland would be quick and easy.

Start small, test them out and then rely on incentives or mandates later.

Yes, there's been a lot of back and forth on that over the last week and there's some good arguments and designs in @richardpope.org's #Platformland too.

There's a bit to around people being anxious about automatic data sharing between departments, so some caution needed, but navigable.

@richardpope.org – In what ways do you think Verify did / didn't support what you describe in #Platformland Chapter 4: Shards of Identity?

Pulling together my thoughts after finishing #PlatformLand. I'll post something longform soon. In the meantime (1) reinforce the tech procurement contract size / cost limits - especially around AI, (2) hire @richardpope.org as an advisor, (3) always consider tech in the context HC's Radical Help.

Many many thoughts about this and everything else GDS did in the early years. I'm planning to write some of them up when I've finished #PlatformLand and had a few days to think about it.

My copy of #PlatformLand has arrived. I'm looking forward to discussing it with all Digital colleagues and importantly influencing the shape of Cumberland Council with @katehurr.bsky.social

Reading #PlatformLand by @richardpope.org is such a frustrating process. Every couple of minutes I have to stop and write down *another* piece of priceless wisdom.
