If (shock horror) you managed to miss @instituteforgovernment.org.uk at Labour conference then have no fear. Audio from all our events is now online. This includes 3 events I chaired: implementing govt's health reforms, delivering preventative healthcare, and rebuilding the criminal justice system

PODCAST 🎙️ Gloves off: Starmer v Reform ICYMI @sophiestowers.bsky.social joins the IfG podcast team for instant reaction to the PM's speech in Liverpool and expert analysis of the Labour Party Conference 2025. 🎧 Listen now www.instituteforgovernment.org.uk/podcast/insi...

“The lion’s share of spending in the early years system is directed at growth, not the opportunity mission” says @nehaldavison.bsky.social who describes the ambition of Best Start as “similar-ish” to that of Sure Start. Read the interview here: www.civilserviceworld.com/in-depth/art...

Excellent coverage of the latest fast stream recruitment data from @tevyemarkson.bsky.social (also featuring analysis from our recent @instituteforgovernment.org.uk report). The CSFS is attracting rising numbers of applicants – so what happens once they're on the scheme is even more important.

Starting now - a great @instituteforgovernment.org.uk panel at Labour Party Conference: How should the government implement and enhance devolution across the North of England? (Arena Room - Clyde, ACC)

So recruitment is going very well. The civil service should ensure things go just as well after graduates join the scheme. We set out how it can do that most effectively in our @instituteforgovernment.org.uk report earlier this month. Read it here:

🎧🎧Listen now! Brilliant analysis of Starmer’s speech and the Labour conference with @drhannahwhite.bsky.social @cathhaddon.bsky.social @alexgathomas.bsky.social and guest @sophiestowers.bsky.social of @moreincommonuk.bsky.social www.instituteforgovernment.org.uk/podcast/insi...
