How data might help solve the sewage problem (with a little help from WriteToThem)

16 April 2026 @ 8:03 am

Have you visited sewagemap.co.uk? If you care about your local rivers, lakes and seas, you might want to take a look at this very graphic display of where sewage is being discharged across England. If you’re wondering which sense of ‘graphic’ we mean, well, it’s both: first, it’s easy to see the information at a…

Responding to AI-driven demand on public systems

14 April 2026 @ 12:51 pm

LLMs can increase demand on public systems by removing the friction that previously limited access. One potential result of this is new forms of unconsidered rationing that recreate that friction. Instead, we should move away from zero sum systems and aim for technical and policy approaches that turn unscalable private benefits into efficient collective ones. …

The growing case to protect FOI

8 April 2026 @ 2:36 pm

How can we tell when AI is actually the right tool for the job?

24 March 2026 @ 9:11 am

Reducing FOI cost limits will reduce government transparency

19 March 2026 @ 3:46 pm

Key points Lowering the cost limit time would reduce the scope of the Freedom of Information Act, giving government departments greater leeway to deny requests. This will have a disproportionate effect on high-impact Freedom of Information requests made by journalists and researchers. It represents a new restriction on public scrutiny of government, counter to promises…
