With deep regret, we convey the sad news of the passing of Mr Adam Czerniawski. Renowned for his extensive output as an author and translator, Mr Czerniawski devoted his life to advancing Polish culture and literature within the English-speaking sphere.

This is powerful stuff, capturing what many in Whitehall yearn to do but are confounded from doing by systems and structures - echoing thinking of the Public Office from twenty years ago by @ruthkennedy and others. And still, here we are.

The combination of arrogance, power and incompetence makes the Treasury the part of the government machine most urgentlyin need of reform. Its complete obliviousness to that is a big part of the problem
Replying to @bwalker347
Rearranging deckchairs is all well and good when the sun is shining. But in volatile times it's about as sensible as ignoring the OBR. I like Fraancis Maude but HMT is his blind spot. I'm biased, but why play politics with the rare department which actually works? #soundmoney

Lovely summary of how complexity thinking and policy intersect (@AntheaERoberts may like!) Question is: what's stopping the policy making system properly engage with complexity thinking? What it is about public sector orgs that makes them nervous to engage?

This is writing and reflection of great beauty on that day 22 years ago. An important reminder that we only know how things end with hindsight. "When it all goes down, you don’t know that it’s over"

"Where is the sense of national urgency" is the question . But please stop looking to the pandemic for an explanation. Look to a system designed with zero interest in the needs of its 10million young users. theguardian.com/commentisfre…
