A government simulation
You are the PM.
You have a team of AI civil servants.
Ten departments of officials who brief you, cost your ideas, argue with each other, and tell you no. Real published figures — actual waiting lists, actual borrowing. Three years to fix the place, then the voters get their say.

The dashboard
Government, on one screen
NHS waiting lists, teacher numbers, borrowing, small boats — the real published figures, updating as your policies take effect. Read the state of the nation in about four seconds, then find out who to shout at about it.
The red box
Somebody always needs an answer
Warnings, submissions, and things nobody wanted to be the one to tell you. Clear the box or let it pile up — either way it’s on the record, and it all counts at the election.
- Decisions sit first, before the good news
- Costed by the Treasury before you sign anything
- Take the partial offer, or overrule them and pay for it
Missions & milestones
Nothing quietly slips
Every promise you make is rated red, amber or green, and the rating moves as you govern — worked out from the real figures underneath it. Take a decision and watch the forecast bend away from where it was heading. That gap is your record.
You will know exactly which promise you broke, and when. So will the voters.
How it plays
Ask for anything. Find out what it really costs.
There is nothing to learn first. You say what you want in plain English, and a government full of officials tells you why it’s harder than that.
You say what you want
“Open the NHS around the clock.”
Type it to the department in plain English, the way you’d say it out loud in a meeting. There is nothing to learn first.
Your officials answer back
“£2.1bn a year, Prime Minister.”
Health works it up properly — what it covers, what it costs, how long it takes, the staff you haven’t got. The Treasury explains what it displaces and offers you rather less. Another department points out it’s now their problem too.
You decide
“Do it. Find the rest yourself.”
Approve it, take the smaller offer, or overrule the Treasury and spend the political capital. Take half the money and you’ll get rather less than half the result.
You live with it
“Waiting lists, 2029.”
The forecast bends on every screen it touches, officials report back on what’s actually being delivered, and the country starts to notice — or doesn’t.
Your civil service
Ten departments that answer back
Every department is run by an AI civil service with its own budget, its own objectives, and its own view of your latest idea. Ask them to work something up. They’ll come back with a cost, a timeline, and the bit you hadn’t thought of.
Then the Treasury tells you what it displaces, and somebody else tells you why it’s their problem now. None of it is written in advance — they work it out from the real numbers, so the same idea can land differently twice.
- Talk to them the way you’d talk to a room of people
- Overrule them if you like. It costs political capital
- Every panel has a Discuss button. Ask them anything
The verdict
The country is keeping score
One number sits above everything: the State of the Nation. It isn’t a vibe — it comes straight from the same published figures on your dashboards, so it only moves when something actually changes.
Underneath it, the voters. Approval broken down by issue and by region, so you can see precisely who you’ve annoyed and roughly how much. Fix the NHS and it shows up here about eighteen months later, which is politics.
- Every figure traceable to a real published source
- Nothing hidden — if it counts against you, you can see it
The election
Three years. Then the country decides.
The clock starts in July 2026 and runs to the 2029 general election. It does not slow down for you — though it does pause while you’re away, because nothing happens behind your back.
You choose how long that takes in real time: fifteen minutes on a train, or an hour if you want to do it properly. Either way, the result comes from the state you actually leave the country in. Nothing is decided in advance, and you can see which numbers are dragging the whole way through.
Departments
Ten departments. One government.
Each with its own budget, its own objectives drawn from real published priorities, and its own opinion of you. No.10 sits above them, and takes the blame.
Your move
