An #OftheGovernment linkfest


At the weekend Jason Caplin from the UKTI wrote a post on Medium as a bit of a call to arms for those still involved in digital transformation in the public sector/civil service as a response to the perceived turmoil after the GDS resignations. It seemed to strike a nerve with people and reminded a handful that you could write more than 140 characters at a time on the web 🙂

So here are links to a few of my favourite posts inspired directly or indirectly by Jason’s call and the events of the last couple of weeks. It has been a pleasure to read them and reassuring to know that nobody is rolling over any time soon.

If I have missed any posts let me know and I’ll add the links..
