Sick of having to hold my nose and vote for candidates who I don't much like in order to avoid the stench of an MP I can't stand. Really hope I get the chance one day to vote for a candidate who might actually make a difference. Hope Gorton and Denton show us the way.

Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove:
O no! It is an ever-fixed mark
That looks on tempests and is never shaken.

Stop Palantir taking over our public services! Our public services aren’t for a secretive profit-hungry US tech firm. Sign the petition to tell the Government to scrap all contracts with secretive US tech firm Palantir.

This morning I posted our petition to get Palantir out of our NHS and our public services.

Over 40,000 people have now signed it - thank you.

Please do keep sharing!

Trump can't overturn a scientific finding. He's rejected science in favour of corrupt political expediency. The science is still valid.

I've known this was coming for years, but it's still gutting to see it. Of all the bullshit that's come from Trump and this regime, this is among the bullshittiest. Just devastatingly evil and corrupt.

Palantir, a US spy-tech firm, has been given access to millions of NHS patient records.

Its founder has said the NHS should be 'ripped up'.

Join me in calling on the government to end the dangerous Palantir contract.

Actually it's just tea. Most people have a preferred brand and drink it morning, noon and night. Tea geeks might like fancy varieties and special breakfast blends, but most of us just drink tea.

The president of the United States is bringing the whole weight of his administration to bully and punish a child whose only crime was to make him look bad. Psychopath? Sociopath? Demented narcissist?
Whatever you call him his regime is evil.

Mandelson’s malign influence runs right through the heart of this Government.

Not least in the govt’s NHS data deal with Palantir – a spy-tech firm co-founded by a man who thinks the NHS should be β€˜ripped up.’

I've written to Wes Streeting urging him to ditch this dangerous deal.
