Britain is systematically incarcerating more & more climate & anti-genocide activists.

"Custodial sentences for acts of direct action or civil disobedience were once rare but are now being imposed with increasing length & frequency."

The real danger is that people are being criminalised for breaching what "is essentially a civil injunction".

"We must use our own expertise to keep patient and medical data within the #NHS. In 2025, #Manchester University NHS Trust advised that the data system in use within its Hospitals was significantly more advanced than the #Palantir offering. So there is at least one UK data system ready to roll out. Probably there are more."

So #trans people in the #UK can't legally use most public toilets, & can't safely use hospitals.

Gender vigilantes will be empowered. Most of their victims will be non-conforming cis women. There will be violence.

Forget the small print in the new code of practice. #Apartheid is the new reality.

Yes, a case will be brought to the ECtHR. But that takes years, and a victory will be the casus belli for the UK to withdraw from the #ECHR.

Thanks, a bunch #LabourParty. You utter scum.

Report: The judge in the Filton 6 trial "secretly ruled that, despite not being charged with terrorism, there was a terrorist connection with the six, due to the activists attempting to influence the Israeli government."

The so-called “terror connection" is highly likely to lead to punitive jail terms at sentencing on 12 June.

It was illegal for the British press to report the fact.

"Attempting to influence the Israeli Government" is "terrorism" now in this country is it?!

Palantir should have no place in the UK's digital systems.

The government must completely break our dependency on US tech firms.

It'll deliver better value for money and protect our national security from foreign interference.

Invest in open source, not Trumpian tech bros!

London Mayor Sadiq Khan shows Palantir the door 🚪

This decision recognises that Big Tech has been grifting the UK for years, by locking us into their exclusive products, jacking up the fees and exporting profits.

The future is open source, NOT shady US spyware companies.

It's time for Digital Sovereignty 🌱

You remember that replacement of our propped-up RAAC hospital has been delayed so they can build a new car park first because they couldn't possibly use a temporary car park during the build, there's no land nearby available for it, and so on? Well, seems they can get land for the rebuild construction traffic... 🤬

Hospital acquires land for contractors as rebuild plans move forward

The single patient record (SPR) will be a national digital record that brings together patients’ health and social care data into a single system, but there's a long history of failed attempts to centralise health data (care.data, GPDPR) - and let's hope #palantir aren't involved.

#Burnham now saying that discussing the #EU would be divisive. FFS. Oh and we can fix the country's problems in isolation from the rest of the world. Or something.

This is what the King-up-the-M62 is offering?

It's more of Starmer's "change", isn't it.

I really hope #GPEW go in hard on this.

I wonder if this is the first in a series of #theCitizens profiles on the #Labour leadership challengers?

Also, "Foxglove is urging you to email your MP and demand #Palantir is kept well away from the Single Patient Record"

Wes #Streeting, Palantir and the corporate capture of the #NHS

Seriously, is there anyone at all out there who still believes that #Corbyn could have been a worse Prime Minister than #Starmer?

Analysis: "The architects of New Labour have eviscerated the Labour Party twice" - in 2003 when Blair took Britain into Iraq, & now under Starmer.

New Labour remains "uniquely toxic to Labour’s brand. It gained power through party purges."

Not just by defining itself against unions & progressives in general, but also by ousting anyone in its path, irrespective of ideology. "The ends justified the means, however dirty."

Opinion: "If Starmer gets his way, Reform - not the Greens - will be his legacy".

"Voters now understand that the party is too utterly captured by Big Business to ever again serve as a meaningful counterweight to the right – or as a vehicle for progressive, anti-austerity politics."

This election, "Tweedledum & Tweedledee politics was finally unmasked as a charade. The electorate is no longer having it."

UK Local Elections: Calls Grow for Labour PM Starmer to Resign

The Labour Party suffered heavy losses in the elections, which also showed a "generational shift away from the two-party political system." And Greens leader Zack Polanski's mandate is "to shift the party markedly to the left... to pursue ecopopulism."
