🌟“The Mind of The Minister provides expert guidance on repairing relations between ministers and officials ... @tomjonbrown lets his subjects speak for themselves, often limiting himself to clarifications and the occasional useful explainer.”✍️Duncan Brown, Civil Service World

[Civil Service World @CSWnews]

Rich in insight and anecdote, the book shows politicians and officials are bound together – and sometimes thriving – whether they like it or not

Has the media’s relationship with the government become too close? How have the Brexit and COVID years influenced this dynamic?
