Palantir has been granted “unlimited access” to NHS patient data. This is the same company that is involved in mass surveillance and genocide. We did not consent to this. Get Palantir out of our NHS, now.

What kind of justice is this? www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

Spare me the “man of great integrity” schtick. Starmer: - Lied through his teeth to become Labour leader - Defended Israel’s right to commit war crimes - Appointed the friend of a notorious paedophile to high office - Went Enoch Powell on migrants And so on!

There’s something rotten in the state of the BBC’s political reporting. And unless it’s fixed soon, they will bring the catastrophe of Trump to the UK.

Completely unacceptable from the Board of Deputies. This nakedly partisan hypocrisy does not represent me or many other British Jews. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

"There is little to no statistical relationship between Reform performance and Labour performance, but a very strong (negative) relationship between Labour and Green performance." @patrick-pme.bsky.social

"72% of the white population is put into one district. 75% of the Black population is carved into two,” Sen. Jeff Yarbro of Nashville said. “We are being asked to believe that it’s just the luck of the draw, just happenstance.” Within hours of a new congressional map passing, the NAACP filed suit.

No one expected Keir Starmer to solve our pressing problems overnight. But what we did expect – and had every right to expect – was that he would lay out a clear vision and roadmap for doing so. Instead, we’ve had drift, appeasement and a startling absence of ideas, values and ambition. 🧵1/6

A please @labouruk.bsky.social, stop saying that it's up to us to stop Reform. YOU could stop a Reform government in 2029, by introducing the proportional representation so many in the country have been clamouring for. The only way Farage can win is through our crazy first-past-the-post system.

Today’s @theguardian.com on the recent #scientology speedrunning trend, featuring a quote from yours truly - www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...

This deserves to be circulated. A former Red Cross staff member got in touch. She testifies about @zackpolanski.bsky.social's role. For transparency: her name is Brea Thibodeau. The whole thing is a desperate smear.

Really striking how the find the most awful people available.

Zack Polanski’s Jewish identity is being erased because he is leftwing. New column 👇 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Reform UK are refusing to explain why Nigel Farage posed for a "Christmas drink" with far-right activists, some of whom took part in a violent attack at a church. One of the men pictured with Farage was convicted of assault by beating last month, after storming an anti-racism meeting at the church

Folks, we're living in a Second Gilded Age. It can be easy to feel discouraged, but the First Gilded Age teaches us lessons on how we can fight back. Watch. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nmq7...

The first question we should ask ourselves in these and all other elections is: Which candidates oppose the inordinate power of the ultra-rich, and which ones accept or encourage it?

I left Twitter/X because of the torrents of abuse, including antisemitic abuse. I've been on a few Palestine solidarity marches and I didn't experience any abuse at all, even when carrying a sign that mentions I'm Jewish. Remind me where antisemitism is breeding.

Cults exploit a gap in UK legislation that enables them to continue abusing people, @chrissheltonmsc.bsky.social reports. www.scientologybusiness.com/featured/chr...

We must stand in solidarity with Jews being attacked by antisemitic criminals and terrorists: no ifs or buts. We must stand in solidarity with Palestinians being murdered by the Israeli government: no ifs or buts. These are not contradictory positions. They are consistent ones. 🧵1/5

Finally! And think how much earlier and more easily this group could be stopped with a law that targeted coercive control in groups! www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

Pope Leo turned the question around like the boss he is.

BREAKING 📰 More than 130 scholars, writers and artists defy ban on Palestine Action in letter to judges composed of only six words – “We oppose genocide, we support Palestine Action” Sally Rooney, Greta Thunberg, and Brian Eno are among the signatories www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

Beggars belief that Met Police is in talks with #Palantir about giving them access to highly sensitive data, when there’s already such concern over its links with ICE & Israeli military. Palantir already has UK contracts worth over £500m, incl. with NHS. We should be scrapping them not signing more

Shabana Mahmood accepted £136,168 from Labour Together & Martin Taylor. Decision-makers should be accountable to patients, not private interests. Help us keep investigating these links and protect our NHS. Donate to our crowdfunder: link in bio.

A success story, yes. But for whom?" The UK Covid Inquiry just called the vaccines & therapeutics rollout a triumph. Meanwhile: → 5M antivirals binned → UK denied immunocompromised people suitable protection → u5s never offered a vaccine www.clinicallyvulnerable.org/post/covid-i...

Clearly, this disqualifies Palentir as a business partner for any other country than the U.S., not just in defense and security related sector but ANY sector — as information is power. European countries should not just start new collaboration with Palentir, they should divest it ASAP!

The Palentir statement on its desired “Technological Republic” is one of the scariest things I have seen in a while. It is a call for a world dominated by an authoritarian U.S., generated by AI (both the statement and the world), run by tech-surveillance companies. Technofascism pure!

HOW EMBARASSING! Pete Hegseth quoted a fake Bible verse from Pulp Fiction during a Pentagon sermon. 🤣🤣

Hundreds of people should not be facing potential terrorism charges simply for holding placards, especially after a court ruling that the proscription of the organisation they were supporting is unlawful. That's not how democracy is supposed to work.

Big news out of the UK yesterday. Here's the lowdown: tonyortega.substack.com/p/members-of... @tonyortega.bsky.social

Under a UK Labour government. Arrested for protesting a government decision. Around the world our politicians are going mad with the power technology is giving them. It may be time to begin burning some shit down.

BREAKING: Police immediately begin wrongful arrests as over 500 people defy the unlawful ban on Palestine Action. Protestors are being arrested under the Terrorism Act for holding signs which say "I oppose genocide - I support Palestine Action".

If you're in the East Midlands we have a social event coming up for anyone who has left a high-control religion/cult. We meet in a cafe in Peterborough. Email [email protected] to register. A great way to meet others who share a similar past. humanists.uk/civicrm/even...

Netanyahu is bombing Lebanon because his political career (and therefore avoidance of prosecution) depends on constant war. How many more people must die for the sake of one man's standing?

Donald Trump must be removed from office for threatening war crimes and genocide. Speaker Johnson: bring the House back into session. Invoking the 25th Amendment and impeachment must be on the table, but Congress should also move on a War Powers resolution to stop Trump.

Starmer should immediately & unequivocally ban access to British airspace to US warplanes. The UK should not be accomplice to a US President who is threatening more war crimes. Period.

Completely unstable and perilous. The House must bring up impeachment articles, and the Senate needs to remove a president who wants to commit war crimes. We cannot sit idly by as Donald Trump threatens to end an entire civilization.

Listen to @timothysnyder.bsky.social. This is the time to say no and refuse to comply.

For almost a century generations of scholars and thinkers have tried to understand why the Germans sleepwalked into disaster. Future generations will focus on a different case.
