He is most emphatic on the zero-based nature of this spending review. It's a fairly hawkish speech so far!

He also seems clear on convening cabinet level cross departmental groups on mission based spending. Really trying to break silos

There followed a lot about tech, that I was too engrossed in reading a piece on AI and growth to listen to clearly.

There's a lot of confident talk about Algorithmic Modelling and the use of HMT GPT to speed up and improve analysis, and Jones appears to imply that their new approach will end the problem of departments arguing with HMT about whose data is right

He's also a fan of "Dutch style" thematic spending reviews, which @instituteforgov.bsky.social work has praised. For @martinned.bsky.social , Dutch is a compliment!
