🚨 We recommend the Parliamentary Inquiry scrutinise the relationship between the government and arms industry on the basis of influence over policy, and the disabling of accountability mechanisms

A British drone company backed by MoD funding is now owned by a US defence group whose defence arm is led by former Mossad chief David Barnea.

That same group is developing attack drones for Israel.

My investigation for @BylineTimes:

1/5 A British drone manufacturer backed by UK defence funding has been bought by a US company now developing attack drones for Israel.

Our investigation for Byline Times raises serious questions about where British military technology could end up. 🧵

UK government ministers held 137 meetings on AI and data centres (June 2024-2026), and not one with an environmental group. Meanwhile, 38 government officials have moved to work for AI and tech firms.

New findings based on 40 FOIs from @EndCorruptionUK

[Paul Holden @pauleholden]

Excellent and disturbing new report from @EndCorruptionUK based on over 40 FOI requests.

Spotlight has found that UK govt ministers have held 137 meetings about Data Centres and AI growth zones between June 2024 and June 2026... but they didn't meet a single environmental group.

Government met only two community groups - but only AFTER the government had approved growth zones in their communities.

At the same time, Spotlight found that 38 government officials had left to take positions at AI and tech firms.

Spotlight is (correctly) calling for a halt on the approval of new AI and Data Centre Development zones until there has been a proper national consultation on community and environmental impacts. In other countries, these consultations have led to important new regulations to enforce environmental protections.

@andrewfeinstein sits down with @AvaSantina on the @politicsjoe podcast to discuss the recent by-election, the failure of politicians across the globe to represent the most urgent needs of the people they represent, and the war machine propping up horror across the globe.

My recent interview on Politics Joe, explaining how the US, UK & EU could stop the killing in Gaza within a couple of weeks. By stopping arms supplies to Israel. By not doing so they are complicit in the slaughter

Three years ago today Israel killed my family.

I shall not forgive or forget.

I will keep their memory alive.

The arms industry ranks these companies as “anti-corruption”, but they each appear in multiple corruption cases in the Corruption Tracker.

Saudi Arabia's war on Yemen has plunged millions into a humanitarian crisis. Instead of ending its involvement, the UK is doubling down.

Read the letter we organised on behalf of ten unions calling on the UK to end military cooperation with the KSA:

Anduril will soon be taking all the billion-dollar contracts for autonomous weapons from Western governments like Australia and across Europe, locking our "security" even further into the US tech-bro mentality of warmongers like Palmer Luckey
