Reply to: Boris wants to know Gov.uk data - TOP PRIORITY

I think you'll find that until we leave the EU, the rules still apply.

49 days to go, will the government get their tulip together in that time?

[Zigenare]

I doubt it very much as the UK is leaving on the 31st October or haven't you heard?

Seeing as the UK government is so inept, then they won't be ready until after that date anyway so expect to see it outsourced to one of the many American companies waiting in the wings who will then outsource it to India....

Sounds like a task for IBM - chances are we'll have to put the job out to tender, EU rules, I bet "Deutsche Hollerith Maschinen Gesellschaft" get the contract.

Yes the Dutch were happy to give up their Jews to the Germans helped by the council's registrations which included the religion of their inhabitants.

Yes the Dutch Soldiers were happy to give up the Muslim Refugees to the Bosnian Serbs - to the extent that they helped load them on to trucks.

I'm spotting a pattern here...

its likely they are experts n that kind of thing.

You mean all this stuff that is already available, just as a single data set...

Sounds actually sensible to me

Services data - GOV.UK

Performance - Activity on GOV.UK

Nope, this goes deeper than that, tracking individual transactions and matching them across services then using analytics to identify individuals. Not to name, address, inside leg measurement levels, but to say this person carried out all these transaction on Gov.uk services; so we now know they own a car, have a passport, a rough idea of where they live etc etc. Big data like this can be manipulated in a number of ways to produce useful information on the subject set. For varying definitions of useful.

Given the individuals behind it their view of useful is probably not the same as most other people.

You voted for him, you voted for a tinpot dictatorship - all going to plan. Assuming the plan involves pouring petrol onto the burning dynamite factory.

It's not all bad. Amber Rudd has resigned.
