Palantir in the NHS is linked to Mandelson
Mandelson is linked to Wes Streeting
Wes Streeting is defending Palantir’s involvement in the #NHS
Nothing to see or everything to see
Palantir must be removed from the NHS
Jeez. Labour MP’s have just voted to give police unprecedented powers to ban recurring protests turning a fundamental freedom into a privilege granted by the state.
No protest movement has ever brought about change through one single march or action - it’s precisely the cumulative nature of protest that has resulted in progressive change and held governments to account.
More than 40 civil society groups including the TUC joined forces to oppose this draconian crackdown by the government on our rights to freedom of expression and assembly but the government has driven it through anyway.
How did it come to this?
Wes Streeting has been the Labour MP for Ilford North since 2015 and is currently the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care.
Wes is very much the focal point in the government’s pay dispute with doctors in the NHS. He has described the British Medical Association (BMA) as a ‘“cartel-like union and no longer a professional voice for doctors.”’ He has also called striking doctors “delusional”.
The Institute for Government has described Wes’ approach to reforming the NHS as ‘“chaotic and incoherent”.’
Accusations have been made against Wes Streeting that he is deliberately targeting doctors and medical staff who voice their support for the Palestinian people. Organisations such as Healthcare Workers Against Censorship and Doctors in Unite have demanded an end to what critics perceive as a ‘“witch-hunt”.’
Wes has sometimes been a source of controversy because of his attritional, factional and confrontational style. He has been accused of bullying political opponents in the Commons.
The @ElectoralCommUK website shows that Wes has personally received £705,258.66 in donations. The bulk of these donations have come from one man - the private healthcare executive Peter Hearn. Peter Hearn has been funding Wes’ career for at least ten years - directly and through his companies - The OPD Group and MPM Connect Ltd.
The following donations and perks have been given to Wes:
£40,000 over 5 payments from Peter Hearn directly.
£218,000 from Peter Hearn and The OPD Group in 4 payments. The most recent payment - £55,000 in February 2026 - while the BMA dispute has been ongoing.
£96,000 over 3 payments from Peter Hearn and MPM Connect Ltd.
£18,500 over 5 payments from Sir Trevor Chinn.
£13,000 from Kevin Craig.
£45,000 over 6 payments from business executive, tech entrepreneur, founder of the Bank of London and LGBT advocate Anthony Watson.

£1,050 in tickets and hospitality from @SkyArts for the @hayfestival .
£600 in tickets and hospitality from F.S. Global Ltd for the @glyndebourne Festival.
With his approx. £180,000 salary, expenses, donations, speaking engagement fees, radio appearance fees and various perks, Wes has enjoyed a very successful career as an MP.
And as an MP, Wes initially voted to retain the two-child benefit cap, voted to scrap the winter fuel payment (in January 2025, Wes told pensioners to “layer up and put the heating on”), voted for the welfare changes that will impact people who are disabled and unwell, voted against an inquiry into grooming gangs and voted to restrict trials by jury.

This is absurd. If we need 4,000 training places we should have them. If we don’t, the Prime Minister shouldn’t be offering them as a bribe paid for by the taxpayer.
You'll want to be sitting down for this bit.
Water companies are currently £82.7 billion in debt, have paid themselves £85 billion in dividends, leak over a trillion of litres of water per year, dump sewage for almost 4 million hours per year, have been convicted of over 1,200 criminal acts since 1989 and an average of 35% of your bill goes on nothing but paying more interest and yet more dividends.
And not a single company has ever lost their operating licence. 👇
Just a month ago the UK agreed to a deal in which the NHS has to pay £3bn a year more for US drugs.
The only thing we got was an agreement the UK would face no tariffs.
Today that deal has been broken by the USA.
The deal must be torn up and no money stolen from the NHS.
@davemeltzerWON It's a stupid point to argue about regardless if it was planned, just let everyone think we made a difference and made it happen. Even if we didn't, this is a stupid point to want to be right over
@RealScreenGeek The original shouldn't be as good as it was, strong performances made a great film. Really no need for a sequel, the first was about characters. This will be about corporation and who cares
Rosalie Chapman's call to rejoin the EU is a must watch - one of the best speeches by a young person 👏
"Years ago, the people of this country made a choice"
"A choice that has left us isolated, diminished and weaker than before"
"To those who voted leave, I say this. You were lied to"
"Not just misled, not just misinformed. Lied to"
"Do not forget the promises emblazoned on buses and broadcast in campaign ads"
"Promises of £350 million a week for the NHS"
"Promises of trade deals so plentiful they'd fall in our laps"
"Promises of an economy unshackled from EU bureaucracy"
"Promises of falling migration, promises of sovereignty restored, and promises that Britain would reclaim its place as a leader on the world stage"
"Every single one of those promises was broken"
"And today we bear that cost"
"They will tell you that this country was broken and they fought to fix it"
"The reality is they broke it and now we have to fix it"
"If you voted to regain sovereignty, instead, you got borders that have never been more porous"
"If you voted to cut migration, instead you have a doubling of net migration since 2016"
"If you voted for 350 million pounds a week for the NHS, instead you have an NHS in crisis, understaffed, underfunded and overwhelmed"
"Ambulance wait times, the longest on record"
"Cancer care, the longest on record"
"If you voted for bold new trade deals, instead, you got five new trade deals, dwarfed in scale by the unparalleled access we once enjoyed with the European single market"
"If you voted for a trade revolution, instead, you got a trade collapse"
"If you voted for a booming economy, instead, exports have plummeted, small businesses are suffocating in paperwork and industries like fishing, once the poster child of Brexit, are being decimated by domestic tariffs and quotas"
"If you voted for a Great Britain, you were left with a little Britain"
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is not sovereignty, this
is not controlled, this is not opportunity"
"Let's call it what it is, a total national tragedy"
"By 2035, Brexit is predicted to have cost the UK 300 billion pounds"
"That is not a distant abstraction. It is a fiscal black hole that will impact every community, every classroom, every hospital bed in this country"
"The pound has plummeted, our exports have fallen by 15% and foreign investment is slipping through our fingers"
"40,000 jobs in London lost"
"2 million jobs nationwide lost"
"These are mere statistics. Until it's you"
"They say that Brexit hasn't changed much, but tell
that to the single mother in Manchester skipping meals to feed her children, as the average person is 2,000 pounds worse off than each year"
"Tell that to the small business owner in Birmingham, a steel parts manufacturer struggling to survive"
"After losing European clients and facing regulatory chaos that has crushed his trade"
"Tell that to the cancer patient in Bristol whose life saving treatments has been delayed because the NHS is short of 4,000 European doctors"
"And tell that to the young graduate in Liverpool stuck in a dead end job because opportunities to work, study and live abroad evaporated"
"These aren't just numbers, they are lives disrupted, dreams deferred and futures stolen"
"Brexit has robbed a generation of its future"
"My generation"
"Your generation"
"Our generation"
"The Erasmus scheme scrapped"
"Horizon Europe funding scrapped"
"And let us not forget the most personal loss of all our rights as EU citizens"
"The fettering of our freedom to live, work and thrive across 27 countries. Gone"
"Now we have less rights than no thank you than our parents enjoyed"
"And that is atrocious, because this isn't just about economics"
"It is about identity"
"It is a debate of hearts and a debate of minds"
"Brexit has not only shrunk our wallets, it has shrunk our role in the world"
"And we have lost a seat at the table. Instead of leading, we are following"
"Instead of shaping the global agenda, we are reacting to it"
"Instead of being a voice of authority, we are a nation on mute"
"Nobody mentions the UK anymore"
"We have made ourselves irrelevant. Members"
"These are not my words"
"They're Sir Richard Dearloves, the former head of MI6, and he could not have put it clearer. Irrelevant"
"He could not have put it more alarmingly irrelevant"
"And now, Brexit has not just failed, it has been rejected"
"Rejected by Brexiteers and rejected by remainers"
"Even Marine Le Pen, the firebrand of French Euroscepticism, has given up on Brexit, admitting that leaving the EU is a surefire path to disaster"
"And the British people know it too"
"Polls after poll tell the same story"
"Out of 233 polls conducted in the last three years, 200 and thirty show majority support for rejoining.
And here's the most damning fact of all"
"Just one constituency, one constituency, one Constituency out of 632 thinks Brexit was the right choice"
"I will concede, however, that the EU is no silver bullet that will terminate all our sorrows, or a shining beacon that will fix every mess. No members"
"The EU is not perfect and it never was. But it is better"
"Better together in trade, as part of the largest economic block in the world"
"Better together in science, where collaboration knows no borders"
"Better together in security, where unity strengthens our defenses against petty tyrants and expansionist dictators"
"And better together in spirit, where shared challenges are met with shared solutions"
"This is not the time to cling to the isolationist fantasies of a little Britain"
"It is time to live up to the true meaning of our name here in a bold Britain, we embrace our fellow Europeans, rejecting the suffocating confines of xenophobic rhetoric"
"Where in a brave Britain, we embrace our global responsibilities and forge alliances that champion unity, we're in a Great Britain"
"We are not shackled by the weight of our past, but are propelled by the promise of an open, outward looking future"
"So what would this look like? Simple"
"There would be another referendum, not necessarily this year, not necessarily in two years, but at some point in our future"
"Voters would receive a fact checked information booklet with details about the vote, what it would mean and accompanied by by party positions"
"And those who are skeptical, let me say this"
"A strong Britain needs a strong Europe, and a strong Europe wants a strong Britain"
"So members, if you seek a more prosperous economy, if you seek a more welcoming country, if you seek more personal freedom, reopen your hearts to Europe, members, reach out your arms to Europe, members, unclench your fists to Europe"
"Because before long, and no doubt within our lifetimes, the arguments which are being traded tonight will be played out before the country as a whole"
"So if there is anyone who doubts Britain's desire to re enter the eu, who still wonders if the dreams of unity are alive in our time, and who questions whether hope can triumph over the bitterness of our past, let tonight be that answer"
"I beg you, members, vote to rejoin the European Union"
"Thank you"
