Policy day at Millbank

Interesting session at the IPPR today - is e-government better government? Scepticism has set in and it’s a question to ask.

Richard Allan MP and freelance thinker Chris Yapp (on the Microsoft payroll) were splendid. We heard about Transport Direct. We were all trying to chip ideas into Will Davies’ IPPR digital manifesto work. I reported on ideal government.

Minister Ruth Kelly revealed we may soon be able to pay our car tax via insurance companies. DVLA is thinking about it, apparently. (A friend recently asked me how long-term e-government watchers retained the will to live. I know what she means).

Ideal Government

Let's say what we want from e-enabled government. Let's observe government first-hand. Let's say "Wouldn't It Be Better If" (WIBBI). Become an ethnographer of bureaucracy today! It beats getting frustrated with public services.
