Capture, would be one word.

A "Don't focus group" (the pronunciation of focus is critical. Change the first o in focus to a u, and it does become more sweary..)

Business executives invited to meet Ministers. Everyone agrees trade deals and deregulation are splendid ideas.

Governmentium. It's also the name for the most dense substance known.

Back in the day the term ‘tunnel focused’ was used to describe groups of pier contributors , whether within a company, organisation or industry, who were so focused in one direction or a fixed agenda that they lost sight of the bigger picture and poss benefit of input from other areas of expertise.
