Monochrome image of a young woman walking the opposite way to a political slogan, about government lies, daubed on an abandoned wall. At a time when the Russian government are spreading misinformation about the war in Ukraine I hope this will be a powerful image.
Government working hard. not always for the best for you.
The government is led by the prime minister, who selects all the remaining ministers. The prime minister and the other most senior ministers belong to the supreme decision-making committee, known as the Cabinet.
Under the uncodified British constitution, executive authority lies with the monarch, although this authority is exercised only by, or on the advice of, the prime minister and the cabinet.

Government house, located in the Botanical Gardens, Sydney. This beautiful building was started in 1837, and completed in 1943.
Queen Elizabeth came to Winnipeg in 2010 and so I ran down to our Government House in the hopes of catching a glimpse... her car was coming down the road way and I was perched on top of a fence... I could have run up to the car, but decided to behave and try and a catch a glimpse of her Majesty... she did see me and waved... I smiled back...
[COP21 visitor] 'Kilo-Golf-Charlie 4001' is obviously another highlight of this global top on climate. This Russian beauty brought the Kyrgyz President Almazbek ATAMBAEV in town to attend COP21 summit held in Le Bourget, Paris, France. [KGC4001]

hey, Wally, I hear you got a new government job.
yeah, it's great! I get to meet all kinds of interesting and smart people.
yeah? like who?
like all kinds. I met Putin the other day.
yeah? isn't he a total thug, killer and creep?
no way! he was really cool! said all kinds of nice things about me!
and so you think. . . what?
to me, if he says nice things, that's a real asset.
and that affects how you perform your job?
yeah! he even gave me tips about emptying the trash! makes sweeping up at the White House a lot easier.
I can totally see how it would.
I know, right?

Excerpt from en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Government_Complex_(Hong_Kong):
The Central Government Complex has been the headquarters of the Government of Hong Kong since 2011. Located at the Tamar site, the complex comprises the Central Government Offices, the Legislative Council Complex and the Office of the Chief Executive of Hong Kong. The complex has taken over the roles of several buildings, including the former Central Government Offices (CGO), Murray Building and the former Legislative Council Building.
The architect was Rocco Yim, who premised the massing on the concept of "door always open". The new government building uses neither Chinese nor European government building designs, but instead it is a mix of postmodern architecture and low-frills international design. The building initially had an open design, but has been heavily fortified after various protests.
The complex was originally designed by Yim under the concept of "Door Always Open", symbolising the pride that Hong Kong holds in its "openness and transparency of governance". In keeping with this theme, the complex was meant to be accessible to the public and integrated with the surrounding urban context, and incorporates a range of public spaces. Tamar Park passes through the complex, leading to the waterfront promenade on Victoria Harbour.
The Civic Square in front of the complex's East Wing has been blocked off from public access with a permanent fence.
