To make sure British citizens realise what's going on, Palantir can now:

• Build and run the National Firearms Registry, tracking the addresses and medical files of 500,000 gun and explosives holders across all 43 police forces.

• Map your digital footprint by trialling police systems (like Project Nectar) that pull your texts, call logs, emails, and social media data into a single profile.

• Track your physical movements by linking live number plate trackers, CCTV locations, and mobile phone tower pings.

• Process unverified intelligence by feeding anonymous tips and police notes about who you meet into automated linking models.

• Profile police officers using data-matching tools that actively scrape the device logs, vehicle uses, and system logins of a force's own employees.

• Access direct NHS data through a £330 million contract, using admin privileges that let engineers view patient environments before the files are scrambled (pseudonymised).

This is the same Palantir used to coordinate the largest simultaneous terrorist attack in history by the IOF in Lebanon.

This is the same Palantir used by the IOF since 2014 and actively being used in Gaza.

Kennedy: Who did Epstein traffic these young women to?

Kash Patel : There is no credible information that he trafficked to other individuals.

So Ghislaine Maxwell is in prison for trafficking young girls to no one?

Sorry but you can't chat about things like digital ID when dressed as if you're living in the 16th century

From @TheAthleticFC: New Jersey Transit confirmed on Friday that World Cup match goers will be charged $150 for a return rail trip from New York's Penn Station to MetLife Stadium in New Jersey this summer. Tickets are ordinarily priced at $12.90. https://t.co/QMm8dMaaw7

First it was Black Mirror, now it’s just Monday in Atlanta.

A company called Undaunted raised nearly $1M this February to flood Atlanta with these "pack" patrols.

​They are called private security "packs" and now patrol ATL streets.

These autonomous dogs are controlled by remote pilots, equipped with thermal vision, and carry sirens loud enough to stop you in your tracks.

​The policy shift happened quietly: property managers are replacing human guards with these AI-synced bots at half the cost. In one DeKalb complex, they’ve already cleared out crime and doubled occupancy.

Nobody is skeptical of autonomous elevators because nobody alive today was even around to see a human elevator operator in real life before the last one got laid off. Automation is far safer.

It’s time to quit, @AnthropicAI employees. You are in over your head.

This is 40.

Little kid me would’ve laughed if you said 2025 was real… or that I’d actually get here. I used to try picturing 40-year-old Frankie...what I’d look like, what I’d be doing...and it felt like science fiction.

If you’d told 13-year-old me on the Malcolm set that I’d walk away from Hollywood, race trucks full-time in NASCAR, own a freaking olive oil store, become a husband, a dad, and somehow still get recognized as “that kid from the show” two decades later… I would’ve called you crazy.

Most days I’m still waiting for someone to tell me this is all a prank.

But here’s the thing: the wild childhood is in the rear-view, the chaotic twenties are a blur, my thirties were where I finally figured out who I am when the cameras aren’t rolling… and now 40?

40 feels like the starting grid.

I’ve got the best little family, the fastest chapter of my racing career ahead, and a hunger I haven’t felt since I was that kid begging for one more take.

This isn’t the finish line. This is engines on, green flag dropping.

Let’s go. Thank you all for being part of this absolutely unbelievable ride.

[Ricky Gervais @rickygervais]

It’s now 27 years since I was made redundant and given a few grand. I decided that if I was careful, I could live off the money for 6 months trying to become a comedian before I had to get another job. I was 37. Worth a punt.

“It's a programme that needs to be decided at the ballot box, not in the company boardroom.”

The government’s digital ID programme lacks a "clear public mandate" and Palantir “will not be participating,” says the company's UK head @LouisMosley.

9yo asked me "Why are grandparent houses are always bigger than parent houses? Shouldn't it be the other way around?"

Oh boy.

Christmas tip - if you’re feeling fucking miserable, stick Nativity! on, (with Martin Freeman, Marc Wootton & Ashley Jensen from that magical time when it was all about British comedy). It works and you have a nice cry and it cheers you right up good and proper.

BT made £1,300,000,000 in profit last year and gave its millionaire CEO a 32% pay rise.

But it then offered workers a real-terms pay cut, even as they're forced to open workplace foodbanks.

Today I was proud to join a CWU picket in Coventry, as the workers fight for fair pay ✊🏽

In Feb, I came back to @BBCCiN to work on the DCMS grants round, and on Monday I'll be moving into the Marketing team.

I'm so thankful to have been able to work with such a truly outstanding group of people.

Grateful for all I've learned and looking forward for what's to come.

[P @peterdufs]

Good luck to @WarringtonYZ who opened their doors today.
We recently had a @BBCCiN project visit and were so impressed. Kitchens, gyms, arts & music rooms, even a football pitch on the roof. Accessible toilets too. 👏
I grew up here in #Warrington and would have loved this place.

Thank you Peter. Liverpool as ever is giving great crowd.
