The problem with our dependency on Big Tech is evident in Palantir's NHS contract. Signing up to a 'subscription service' for one company's exclusive software leaves us with nothing when we end the contract. With open source, we don't have to start again with a new platform when changing vendors. https://www.theregister.com/2026/04/20/palantir_nhs_break_clause/ #BigTech #palantir #nhs #DigitalSovereignty #opensource #UnplugBigTech #ukpolitics #ukpol

Handing out contracts to Big Tech platforms is a rip off. If we don't like the over-charging, tax-dodging and exporting profits overseas, we face the nightmare of vendor lock-in. They own the software, so love it or lose it. We call for UK Digital Sovereignty to turn the tide.

This website is an eye opener. It shows how much profit is being ripped out of the NHS by privatised healthcare. You can put in your postcode and it shows how much your local area is losing. #NHS #Privatisation https://www.nhsprofitmap.org.uk/

Watching ministers talk about NHS data strategy is like watching someone confidently rewire a house with no understanding of electricity. The language sounds polished, the reassurances are endless, but the substance just isn’t there. Choosing a company like Palantir isn’t a neutral technical decision. It’s a long-term structural commitment with real implications for control, access, and public trust. Yet it’s presented as a simple procurement exercise. And when political careers move on, as they always do, there’s rarely any reckoning for decisions that reshape public infrastructure for decades. That asymmetry should concern everyone. #technology #surveillance #nhs #politics #ice #ethics #society #data Palantir: NHS pilot’s “success” is questioned as second figure at major trust is linked to the tech giant | The BMJ https://www.bmj.com/content/393/bmj.s680

We know that the NHS has a (partially hidden) culture of management bullying, so we might have expected that those staff criticising the use of Palantir in the NHS (on which I posted a couple of weeks ago) might be subject to managerial pressure... and sure enough they have been. The FT reports analysts complaining about Palantir have been threatened with the sack if they do not buckled down & use the disputed technology. Unsurprising but unwelcome & divisive! #Palantir #NHS #health

The NHS is (and has been for such a long time) suffering budgetary constraints, but now we know where a slice of that shortfall is going: In two years private health providers made £1.6bn in profits from their work in the NHS. Supporters of private provision will claim that money is a reward for extra productivity & efficiency; more realistically we know these firms are cherry-picking treatments & transferring patients back to the NHS when problems arise. #NHS #health https://www.theguardian.com/society/2026/apr/13/private-companies-nhs-services-profit-chpi-research

Having awarded a major contract to (controversial) data firm Palantir, a growing number of NHS staff are refusing to work with the firm's tools for ethical reasons, with wider passive resistance to its deployment. One manger said: 'People are saying, ‘I refuse to work on this software. You have to find something else for me to do’... They’re calling it a workplace adjustment. [as] if you were disabled & needed a different desk, they’re literally treating it like that'!  #NHS #Palantir h/t FT

BlackRock, an American company who donated to Trump's election campaign, are buying up GP surgeries in the UK then increasing rents, taking more money from the NHS for CEO and shareholder profit. I just signed the petition. https://weownit.org.uk/act-now/blackrock-nhs-not-for-sale Note my charity transferred from BlackRock share management over a year ago because we favour ethical investing and they'd decided to support Trump. (Using profits from our money to support any politician wasn't in line with our policies.) #NHS

Thank god! Signs that the lights are coming on re Palantir and the NHS. ‘a growing recognition that the issue of Palantir and potential reputation risk had moved beyond the Labour left and Greens, who have led criticism in the past’ ‘When you look at some of the things Palantir’s leaders have said in the States, when you look at their political views and their outlook … If you were to put [Thiel] and some of those Palantir bosses on the political spectrum in the UK, they would be well off to the right of even Kemi Badenoch’s Conservative party’ Let’s get them out of our data https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2026/mar/31/palantir-uk-boss-louis-mosley-ministers-nhs-contract #nhs #palantir #peterthiel #wesstreeting #nationalhealthservice #health #uk #guardian #ukpolitics #data #ai

Well I'm gutted. Just discovered a load of NHS trusts just quirlty during neurodiversity week, halted Right to Choose for adhd and autism tests. No announcements. No consultation. Just stopped. For children waiting diagnosis for SEND assistance in education this is likely to cause irreparable harm... for adults with no advocates waiting diagnosis, struggling waiting for treatment they dont know might help. Id like someone to ask the health secretary what is going on @ZackPolanski@mastodon.green https://adhduk.co.uk/right-to-choose/right-to-choose-wait-times/ #neurodivergent #RightToChoose #NHS #MentalWellbeing #SEND

The UK had a world beating organ transplant service (in the NHS) but now due to staffing problems & old(er) technologies it lags other European counties on the number of transplants successfully achieved & the subsequent survival rate. Even though we 'harvest' organs at a rate in line with other counties we use a lower proportion for actual transplants. Its just one more fatal consequence of the Tory engineered (but continuing) NHS crisis. #NHS #transplants #politics https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/clyrj8rz6jno

Why are more GPs opting to work outside the #NHS? More doctors and patients are turning to the private sector as demand increases pressure on the NHS. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c3wln1dlev6o?at_medium=RSS&at_campaign=rss (c) #BBC #News
