UK MPs urge an overhaul of appointment rules to prevent ministers from putting political friends on #Whitehall department boards. With examples of politically connected appointees surfacing, the committee calls for a ban. Classic Tories! #UKPolitics

#Ministers quietly scrap limits on #Whitehall spending on consultants

Exclusive: Labour calls cancelling of financial restrictions ‘indefensible’ in cost of living crisis

"The move was not announced, but changed on the guidance page of the #CabinetOffice website, which said the spending controls on “consultancy and professional services” had ceased as a requirement"

Is this the promised “#Integrity, #Professionalism and #Accountability”?

All #levellingUp was designed to deliver was more #toryMPs

It is a figleaf policy that replaces #EU regional support with smaller amounts, micro-managing the use of those funds from #whitehall putting those in less affluent areas into the role of #supplicant to a paternalistic central state which nakedly favours the electoral interests of the Conservative Party

#introduction editing a new long form content web site for Centre for Cultural Witness so enjoying reading on #Theology #Philosophy #Tech #Digital #Policy and other big things in life. Launching early 23. Other experience in #PR #CSR #Comms #SocialMedia #FinTech #Whitehall and #Infrastructure. Other interests: #Cycling #Scotland #Argyll #Snowsports #Sailing and #geography. I’ve been down here before and know a way out.

I was walking along #London's #Whitehall when I came across #PiersCorbyn being interviewed outside #DowningStreet. Only had my #LeicaM4P with me though so #IlfordHP5Plus shot it was!

There's something nice about having to advance the film after each shot though. It slows down your shooting and really makes you think before snapping the next frame.

Another ongoing issue which I want to continue documenting is the support which Ukraine has from the United Kingdom. Ukrainians regularly arrange protests on #London's #Whitehall three times a week.

I want to continue documenting these rallies in order to record the narrative, and to also try and break through the whole idea of "Ukraine fatigue" by producing new imagery and a new way of looking at the protesters and their rally.
