    Do you want Tesco to start giving you healthy food recommendations?

  • Even within the NHS, doctors are giving up on the idea of a free health service

    rosie beacon

    The NHS is costing ever-increasing amount of money, and delivering worse and worse outcomes. Is it really still 'free at the point of use'? Rosie Beacon writes.

  • From crime to health, Britain can’t see beyond acute needs for public services

    Rosie beacon

    Failures at the Metropolitan Police; the slow-motion collapse of the NHS; strikes across industries. Our public services are geared towards acute need, over stopping that acute need in the first place, writes Rosie Beacon.

  • We should be concerned about privacy – but we still need to introduce digital IDs

    March 8, 2023

    Some people are very sceptical about the concept of digital identity. But digital IDs are more of an infrastructure than anything else - one that would make accessing public services a lot easier, writes Rosie Beacon

    January 25, 2023

    The Metropolitan Police has been the subject of a series of scandals, from the murder of Sarah Everard to David Carrick, and endless commissions won't help it adapt to the needs of 2023, writes Rosie Beacon

  • As we modernise education, we can’t allow hackers to target our kids’ future

    January 11, 2023

    Schools operate in a world where parents don't sign physical sick letters or have mailed report cards, but if this digital system is held to ransom, students' grades and even university entry could be at risk, writes Rosie Beacon.

  • As the nature of work evolves, we need fresh solutions to employment regulation that go beyond union membership

    January 4, 2023

    For better or worse, unions currently feel omnipresent. But within this political quagmire of public sector pay demands and strikes, the oft-quoted defence of unions is not merely their position as an immense vehicle of wage bargaining, but their historic role in the development of basic employment rights. So it seems unusual that there still [...]

  • When did we simply accept fraud as an inevitable part of our modern lives?

    November 30, 2022
