This may in fact have been a good idea... but I think @mopman deserves some kind of recognition for a beautifully crafted social hack that it would appear has actually resulted in an amendment to an Act of Parliament. Nice work.

The fact that UK postal addresses are not open data is a longstanding problem that lots of people have tried to fix. We (a small 'coalition of the willing') are having another go at it.

I wrote about the rise and fall of the UK's Government Digital Service this week, in the context of a country that is failing the data management challenges of the pandemic. It didn't used to be this way economist.com/britain/2020/1…

A very important survey for us #data people in the #CivilService. I look forward to reading the response.
Did missing government data affect you or your organisation during Covid-19? If you couldn't get the official data or statistics you needed, please tell us so we can help @CommonsPACAC's evidence gathering. Survey here - please share! docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F…

The talk reminded me of a blog I wrote during the summer for @opentechuk where I reflect & request technologists to engage with the wider societal issues in which products/services are deployed & the need for community input medium.com/@traceygyateng/te…

I admire @johnlsheridan so much for not only having the vision of what legislation.gov.uk could be, but also patiently pursuing it over many years. Even more important piece of infrastructure in the context of the kind of legislative changes 2020 is throwing at us!
On this day, 10 years ago, @UkNatArchives launched legislation.gov.uk. I think we made some good choices (URLs, API, design, core tech). The big thing that’s improved is the up to date content. It’s the work of many amazing people and I’ve loved being part of it #legislat10n
Still time to submit a talk idea - what’s the tech/data/digital talk you’ve always wanted to give? Or see given? opentech.org.uk
