If anyone from gov.uk is reading this, do you fancy answering the question I posed when the site was launched but never received an adequate answer to?

Why does gov.uk, a site all about allowing the British public to interact with the British government, use google analytics?

You are shipping all the data about all my interactions with my government off to a third party in another country. Another country that we know has not got the same legal data protection requirements, and one which has now been exposed as having massive internal spying problems.

And no, telling me "google aren't allowed to use the data" and then opening an outsourced helpdesk ticket with another US based company does not cut it.

This extends well beyond boundaries and governments. Google Analytics has become an industry standard.
