This is the Palantir that the Labour UK Government is in bed with. They are being given England's NHS patient data and a £330 million contract to boot.

⭕️ MUNICH | Palestinian political leader Mustafa Barghouti challenged the panel at the Munich Security Conference to answer who will hold Israel accountable for daily ceasefire violations, and how Trump’s new political body can be called a “Board of ‘Peace’” if it includes Israel’s prime minister (who was indicted by the ICC for war crimes), and “not a single Palestinian.” The EU’s top foreign affairs minister, Kaja Kallas, replied that “nobody should be above the law,” saying that if international rules are breached, “you should also be held accountable, whoever you are.” Yet the EU-Israel Association Agreement — which contains a human rights clause (Article 2) allowing suspension in case of violations — has not been enforced. Despite internal EU findings that Israel may be breaching its obligations, the bloc has failed to act. Sanctions have targeted a handful of “violent settlers” and figures like Itamar Ben Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich, but not the broader military and state structures responsible for mass murder and mass destruction in Gaza. Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan said “obviously it’s not a ceasefire if the guns haven’t ceased,” adding that “even if the killing has stopped, the dying hasn’t.” In reality, roughly 600 Palestinians have been killed and more than 1,600 injured since the mid-October ceasefire announcement in continued Israeli strikes and shootings across Gaza. U.S. Ambassador to the UN Mike Waltz butted in, claiming more than 4,000 trucks per week have entered Gaza since Sharm el-Sheikh, adding “it’s not enough.” UN data shows closer to roughly 250 trucks per week — not 4,000. @MustafaBarghou1 | @kajakallas | @KSAmofaEN | @USAmbUN

He's completely trashed their reputation. Can't see it ever regaining the international status it had.

Maybe just me, but since Trump, any tv or film featuring the FBI or CIA rings hollow now.
It's like the whole setup is a complete sham.
Maybe it just took Trump to bring the castles built on sand come tumbling down....

Don't let Sarwar anywhere near our Scottish NHS.
Only vote for Indy Parties to protect our NHS

👏

100% agree. If proven, the SNP would be the victims of crime. Although this fact won't fit the agenda & will be ignored by the "Scottish" media.

The COPFS are going to have to send out a robust round robin, again, about contempt. Worth sending it to Starmer too after his PMQs.

Two weeks ago, Peter Mandelson told us he had no recollection of planning to buy a £2m apartment in Rio via a Panama holding company and a Brazilian company.

Yesterday we found notarised incorporation documents for the Brazilian company, with Mr Mandelson's signature.

Quite rightly, Scotland's NHS has not given Palantir access to our records.

England's Wes Streeting, however, has said he will 'hold the door open' to privatising England's NHS.

Palantir's access to England's NHS records is a very slippery slope.

Two words:

Brexit.

Grangemouth.

We desperately need Scottish Independence.

It HAS to be better than the naked racism sweeping England?

Don't let old racists and billionaires dictate the narrative any more.

BREAKING⚡️The High Court has just ruled that the government's draconian ban of Palestine Action was unlawful. This is a massive blow to the Home Office’s authoritarian approach. They need to stop criminalising people protesting a genocide and start ending the UK's complicity

Palestine Action have WON their judicial review in the High Court!
A massive victory for free speech, freedom of association and the right to protest.
A massive defeat for the draconian attempts by Keir Starmer's government to curtail our fundamental rights.

The utter madness of the UK government in creating terrorists out of peaceful wearers of T-shirts has been exposed.

Wes Streeting still ready to challenge Starmer despite show of unity, allies say.

He had majority of just over 500 votes in the last election.

He would take Labour further to the right. Funded by healthcare companies, handing the NHS to corporations and private equity.

Israel has so far violated the 11 October ceasefire deal in Gaza at least 1,520 times (as of Feb. 1, 2026).

Wetherspoon boss urges pubs to back Reform By Henry Saker-Clark The founder of Wetherspoon has urged other pubs to back Reform UK. Sir Tim Martin, chairman of JD Wetherspoon, said Reform's plans to slash beer duty would help the sector move towards "tax parity with supermarkets". Nigel Farage's party announced a series of proposals to support pubs last week. They included pledges to cut VAT in the hospitality sector by 10 per cent, cut beer duty by the same fraction. Reform also said it would reverse the recent rise in employers' national insurance contributions (NICs) for the sector and gradually remove business rates for all pubs. The party has said it would fund this package with around 23on, which it plans to secure through reinstating the two-child benefit cap, except for families with two British-born parents. In a lengthy stock exchange filing yesterday, Martin (inset) told industry leaders "there's no question that this initiative would utterly transform the competitiveness of pubs" He said: "By eliminating the tax differential between supermarkets and the hospitality industry, and restoring margins to devastated businesses, these changes would enable pubs to regain some, or all, of their lost trade. "You would think that this offer from Reform would have been greeted by a crescendo of enthusiasm, ecstasy and support from the licensed trade and its supporters. "However, surpris-ingly, initial support has been underwhelming, at least from the great and the good in the hospitality industry" Last month, Labour announced additional business rates support for pubs. The announcement was a U-turn following complaints from pubs about rates changes in November's Budget.

Multimillionaire Brexiter, Tim Martin, urges pubs to back Reform. Just like he urged the country to vote for Brexit. Too bad if it makes you poorer. Too bad for the children he’ll push back into poverty. Tim wants more money. And he couldn’t give a shit about the cost for everybody else.

So the fall-out from the wretched Mandelson scandal has led Scotland’s Labour leader to call for Keir Starmer to resign.
Meanwhile, last year…

There is always a tweet.

Looks as if he's part of Mandeleson's retribution v Starmer plan. Very pally with Mandelson was/is? Mr Sarwar.

Scotland deserves better.
