It's not hyperbole to suggest that today we have a federal government that doesn't so much represent or resemble a federal administration as it does a family crime syndicate.

Why would you pig-headedly ignore the voice of the next generation? Why would you saddle them with debt, shrink the job market and limit their opportunities? It runs counter to everything politics and society should want for them. For all of us. They’re the future.

With reduced productivity, investment, and trade, the impacts of leaving the European Union is still being felt a decade later. As today marks 10 years since the date of the referendum was confirmed, it reminds us of the importance of repairing our relationship with Europe.

And yet the pathetic portion of the electorate that voted for it, now seems determined to place its architect into Downing Street - and organs like the Telegraph are happy to pretend they were not complicit in helping these events to happen...

How Palantir captured the Ministry of Defence

How a close read of public domain documents show how MoD was commercially colonised by Palantir

By me, at FT

@davidallengreen.bsky.social: β€œUnless evidence to the contrary is provided to the public, it appears as if the government department responsible for defence has commercially surrendered to a single service provider.”

I have no particular knowledge nor interest in Palantir, but as a public procurement lawyer looking closely at the public domain documents about the MoD-Palantir contracts, there is something concerning going on.

Two successive high value tenders without advertisements or competition?

Really?

How Peter Thiel's Secretive Data Company Pushed Into Policing | Backchannel An investigation reveals the difficult issues police and communities face when they adopt Palantir’s data-scooping software.

Good to highlight this.

I always wonder how it is that this long piece in Wired from 2017, on how Palantir takes over institutions, has not found its way into the minds of public procurement decision makers around the world.

Somehow, we need to legislate against 'Private Equity' firms - their participation in any sector is seldom to the benefit of the users of the products or services they are taking over.
It won't be easy, but it really would be a huge improvement to all, apart from those seeking short term profits.

Private equity firms are β€˜cashing in’ on broken Send system, Lib Dems say Lib Dems leader Sir Ed Davey has called for the Send sector to be given legal protections

Private equity firms β€˜cashing in’ on broken Send system.

Vulnerable children treated as "cash cows", successive govts obsessed with privatisation.

Public purse bears cost, local councils heading to bankruptcy.

Can't end profiteering without investing in public provision of children's care.

Nigel Farage lashes out at a FT journalist and refuses to answer the question.

Is this how Reform UK would ignore media questions if they got into government?

Reform UK had 57 councillors in their flagship Kent Council in May 2025.

The number needed for a majority is 41.

Today they stand at 47.

Linden Kemkaran, Kent Reform UK Leader has been a disaster.

Anniversary of a confession in the clear: The networked evil that brought us Farage’s, Putin pleasing, Brexit. Here is the missing clip in which Farage confirms that Brexit would not have been possible without Bannon, Breitbart and by implication Cambridge Analyitica’s β€œhelp.”
