In the UK "government" is generally taken to mean the executive who are also part of the legislature (parliament), but not judiciary. UK Judiciary separation appears to be far stronger than in the US viewed from here in the UK.
- swebs 7y agoAh, I didn't know that. Well both HN and Github are US sites, not UK, so the title is accurate in this context.
