Gov.UK is a terrible website. https://medium.com/@prenticemathew/ux-specialists-are-killing-web-design-50b7d7607c13 https://medium.com/@prenticemathew/ux-speci

  Most people love it. IMHO this is the best government website.

  That article is bullshit. You can't judge gov.uk by its homepage, because that's almost never where you land. Now that we have gov.uk, whenever I google something about doing my tax, or registering to vote at a new address, or any other arduous governmental admin shit, I usually end up on a beautifully simple and focused gov.uk page, and I'm in and out in 2 minutes. That's what a government website is about. I agree the homepage looks like a parked domain but whatever. Take a random page like this: https://www.gov.uk/alter-a-will-after-a-death https://www.gov.uk/alter-a-will-after-a-death Look at how brief and clear the writing is. Look at how straightforward its URL is. Have a look at some more pages, look how consistent the design language is. This is exactly what a government website should be like.
