Palantir have paid huge sums to former Labour ministers to lobby for this.
The NHS sees no convincing patient benefit.
Like the US told Trump this week, we're done with big tech corporations taking over our democracy and public assets.
Labour won't stand up to them. We will.

So Palantir buying a Labour Lord was good value for their money after all.
Cash for access. Stinks.
Palantir’s Tom Watson, ex-Labour MP, wrote to Yvette Cooper last month saying the controversial US company could help boost the UK’s tech sovereignty, letters show. Weeks later, sources say the UK is extending its NHS contract for two more years

Stephen Miller And Russell Vought Made Plans For Trump To Rule By Decree After Losing Congress.
In The Footsteps Of Adolf Hitler And His Crown Jurist Carl Schmitt...
The article from Reuters linked below is reportedly based upon leaks from members of the White House staff, who are acting as 11th-hour whistleblowers currently panicking about the prospect of imminent dictatorship. (And also likely due to the threat of possible nuclear conflict involving Iran.) They are not the morning breakfast waitstaff or Trump’s hair stylists, given the report’s level of detail regarding these operations.
Miller and Vought have been conspiring with the White House Counsel’s Office and the DOJ since April to make contingency plans in case they lost both House and Senate. This is a blueprint for governing without Congress, and outlines executive orders for a wide array of policy goals across the board through which to obstruct and override Congress by effectively acting as though they don't exist. They expected and began preparing for a midterm wipeout seven months ago.
Included on their list of executive orders are the following policies:
‣ Officials identifying executive actions on immigration, tariffs, housing and spending
‣ Trump says he would become “Mr. Veto”
‣ Plans under consideration include tariffs on critical minerals and wind turbines
‣ White House lawyers brief appointees on handling subpoenas and document requests
The planning underscores a paradox of Tuesday's midterm elections: Capturing control of Congress would give Democrats the power to investigate Trump, block legislation and constrain his spending priorities. But Trump would retain broad executive authority over trade, foreign policy and the federal bureaucracy that he has already used aggressively during his second term.
Stephen Miller is a devotee of Adolf Hitler’s Crown Jurist and legal advisor Professor Carl Schmitt. Schmitt was the author of the so-called “exception doctrine” and the “unitary executive theory” of the presidency under which a strongman dictatorship can effectively suspend the constitution, ban Parliaments and impose extra-legal authority in times of “national emergency.”
These ideas of Schmitt were those underlying the SCOTUS ruling of July 2024 regarding presidential “official immunity” which we remember, as was argued by Trump’s lawyers, meant he could theoretically deploy SEAL Team Six to assassinate his political opponents.
Schmitt wrote the legal opinion under which Hitler’s seizure of total power after the Reichstag Fire was justified and codified. Schmitt did the same after Hitler’s “Night Of The Long Knives” bloody purge, leaving at least 500 of his political opponents dead in one night, including former Chancellor Kurt Von Schleicher and his wife who were accused of a coup plot. Schmitt wrote, “The Führer protects the law.”
For those who know of Schmitt from reading Professor Heather Cox Richardson, it should be re-emphasized that the entire group of the GOP appointed Supreme Court Justices are members of Leonard Leo’s “Federalist Society,” which had publicly anointed Schmitt as the patron saint of Nazi-modeled legal doctrine among conservatives some 40 years ago. The implementation of the “Project 2025” blueprint, which was co-authored and carried out by The Heritage Foundation’s Vought, is in fact dependent upon the realization of Carl Schmitt’s fascist legal theories in modern form.
Fascism feeds upon violence and chaos, because its leaders have always needed to fabricate the emergencies which enable them to govern through issuing emergency decrees.
In that sense, fascist dictatorships are comparable to 19th Century big city community fire departments which were in competition to put out the most fires. At some point some were actually starting the fires themselves so they could be the first to arrive at the scene to put them out and take credit for it. As often as not, when studying the patterns of history's worst dictators, from Nero to Vladimir Putin, we learn that theirs were the hands which lit the torches.
Therefore as we’ve been discussing, an escalated Iran war fits the bill. It’s the emergency Trump and Co. need in order to impose a dictatorship after the midterms and attempt to void the elections. Arguably one cannot analyze the Reuters Miller/Vought story in isolation, or likewise the Tucker Carlson leaked report on the danger of Trump nuking Iran after the election. They are the same news story playing out in sync on a TV split-screen format.
The fact that this account was leaked to Reuters has significance. They are a leading voice in the international intelligence establishment, more than simply a news agency. Not to Raw Story, Daily Beast or New Republic, all very partisan outlets...but Reuters. It means that the sources are highly placed and thoroughly vetted, otherwise Reuters being what they are wouldn’t go with it.
It also means a major internal rupture has occurred inside the Trump White House, a new situation we can exploit. A leak like this, under certain highly pressurized conditions, can very quickly become a breach in the dam complete with floodwaters. There will be more coming out on this we can be sure.
The people doing the leaking have to be “hearing footsteps” because we are well aware of the lengths to which Trump and Miller will go to get their retribution. Just look at the James Comey case for example. These former Trump accomplices made a deal with the Devil, and now they have a little buyer’s remorse, (or just want to save themselves) so they want out, and are risking themselves to undo what they’ve been a part of.
Plus I know Stephen Miller like a safari guide knows Hyenas. This gameplan has his foaming at the mouth rabid paw prints all over it. I see the Reuters piece as highly credible, and the actual threat as far too real.
The main point we are taking up here is that they haven’t done it yet, and their plan can still be stopped because it’s broken into the public view.
And not insignificant is that another layer of onion has been peeled back which illustrates how completely out of it Trump is at present, how he is in no sense a fit or functional president, and meanwhile another group of unelected criminal minds are running the White House in his name. It hurts him even more with his base, which is already in process of flaking off for several reasons. Even an idiot in a red hat will think twice when hearing of the Army practicing digging mass graves, and might wonder if their own kids aren’t the ones who will be resting there for all eternity.
The greater our majorities are after Tuesday, the more difficult it will be to carry out their plan. It’s not complicated. The Democratic Party claims to have a strategy for defending our votes. Let’s all hope it’s not the same one they had in 2024.

The man below standing with indicted ICC fugitive Netanyahu and holding a Barak sniper rifle to be sent to IOF genocidaires is the man UNSG Antonio Guterres has just appointed as the new head of the UN World Food Programme. He is Luke Lindberg, a former Trump administration official and vocal Israel regime supporter who publicly praised Netanyahu in the middle of the genocide in Palestine (wishing him “godspeed”), and who is the son-in-law of Israel lobby darling US Sen. John Thune. In the meantime, WFP has announced it is cutting food aid to half a million genocide survivors in Gaza, as winter approaches and their situation grows ever more dire. This is the UN on its knees before the US empire. It will find the courage to stand up, or it will fade into permanent irrelevance. #Shame

More staggering, quite simply this conversation could not take place on UK mainstream media.
If it had, @AbdulElSayed would have been labelled an antisemitic extremist.
Right @bbclaurak?
It's a sign of just how captured and corrupted our government and media has become.

The UK Media, Press & Government all work off the same page, in the same office, in the same house & the same bed.

This is so strong and clear.
You can't help but notice that if this was in the UK context - you wouldn't be able to get a single one of these sentences out without a journalist barracking the person saying it constantly.
The UK media is in quite a state.

Axios: House Democrats "inundated" with anti-Jeffries calls
Democratic House members and members-elect are being bombarded with phone calls and emails urging them not to elect Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) as speaker, more than a dozen lawmakers and aides tell Axios.
An incoming House Democrat told Axios they are "getting inundated" and have received "about 150" calls since the election urging them not to vote for Jeffries.

THE REPUBLIC (1/2) – WER STECKT HINTER DIESER „DENKFABRIK“?
Armin Petschner-Multari saß bei Markus Lanz und erklärte, warum die Union ihre Abgrenzung zur AfD überdenken müsse. Vorgestellt wurde er als Geschäftsführer einer konservativen Denkfabrik. Das klingt nach politischer Forschung. Die Geschichte seiner Organisation erzählt allerdings etwas anderes.
Petschner-Multari ist CSU-Mitglied und war für die digitale Kommunikation der CSU-Landesgruppe im Bundestag tätig. 2021 gründete er die TheRepublic GmbH. Im Handelsregister standen damals als Unternehmenszweck journalistische Inhalte, politische Kampagnen, Veranstaltungen und die Beratung politischer Akteure.
Der politische Auftrag war von Beginn an unmissverständlich. The Republic verstand sich als „außerparlamentarische Stimme von CDU und CSU“ und wollte dem angeblichen „Linksdrift“ eine konservative Gegenöffentlichkeit entgegensetzen. Die ersten Kampagnen hießen „Gegen den Gender-Wahnsinn“, „Radikale Kräfte bremsen“ und „Endlich den Öffentlich-rechtlichen Rundfunk reformieren“.
Interessant ist, was das Institut für Demokratie und Zivilgesellschaft in Jena bereits nach dem Start 2021 feststellte. Die Forscher untersuchten die Twitter-Kommunikation von The Republic. Ihr Befund: Unter liberal-konservativem Etikett knüpfte die Plattform sprachlich und inhaltlich an rechtspopulistische Narrative an. Das Institut beschrieb Negative Campaigning im Stil Donald Trumps und politische Feindbilder. Diese Einordnung lag bereits vor, lange bevor die späteren MAGA-Kontakte öffentlich diskutiert wurden.
2025 änderte die GmbH ihren eingetragenen Unternehmenszweck. Seither heißt sie offiziell bürgerlich-konservative Denkfabrik. An ihrem Anspruch, die öffentliche Debatte zu prägen, hat sich wenig geändert. In ihrer Selbstdarstellung will The Republic die angebliche Dominanz der politischen Linken herausfordern, eigene Multiplikatoren aufbauen und die Kampagnenfähigkeit konservativer Kräfte stärken.
Und wer bezahlte den Aufbau? Nach Petschner-Multaris Angaben kamen 2021 rund 200.000 Euro zusammen, hauptsächlich von mittelständischen Unternehmern, darunter Unterstützer aus dem FDP-Umfeld. Friedrich Merz nahm an einem Fundraising-Dinner in Leipzig teil und wünschte dem Projekt öffentlich Erfolg. Die Namen und Einzelbeträge der Geldgeber sind nicht öffentlich aufgeschlüsselt.
Später unterstützte die CDU-nahe Union Stiftung die internationale Berlin Campaign Conference finanziell. Konkrete Fördersummen sind nicht veröffentlicht. Petschner-Multari erklärte, seine GmbH trage den größten Teil der Konferenzkosten selbst.
Damit ist der Charakter dieser Organisation recht klar: The Republic entstand als politische Kampagnenplattform, die einen rechten Gegenpol im öffentlichen Diskurs aufbauen wollte. Ihre Mittel sind Kommunikation, Vernetzung, Kampagnen und die Ausbildung konservativer Multiplikatoren.
Aus einer Plattform gegen den „Linksdrift“ wurde eine international vernetzte Denkfabrik. Wer heute zu diesen Netzwerken gehört und wie tief sie ins Unionsumfeld reichen, ist Thema des zweiten Teils.

Things for everyone to remember. The owners of all of America's mainstream media outlets, and at least 2 of our social media outlets, are BILLIONAIRE TRUMP DONORS. They'll want Schumer and Jeffries to hold onto their leadership positions in Congress, because they know they'll allow Trump and his cronies to evade justice, and will vote to continue giving them huge tax breaks/corporate welfare. This is why they'll promote them. Also, out of hundreds (535?) of Congressional representatives, only 27 of them refuse to accept AIPAC money (if you find out something different, please let me know). AIPAC wants to keep Trump and the GOP in power, because they support sending billions of our taxpayer dollars to Israel each year. In 2025, we sent them 3.5 billion. This funds Netanyahu's genocide of Muslims in Gaza and elsewhere. Please pay close attention.
