Palantir is not "running a huge patient database for our NHS", unless contract oversight is on the complicit side of zero.

It's making available data from many small databases run by different software systems, because the UK government failed to make one database.

1st time I've heard this. Very curious. Is it a Facebook thingy?

Same here. Entry to the system is where the problems lie, unless an emergency.

Oh great. The World at One has begun its coverage of Jim Ratcliffe's remarks with two "vox pops" - one for, and one against. Just such an awful, cop-out model of reporting.

More gossip, McNamara true to form pretending he can analyse what various 'sections' are saying. Has it ever occurred to him that they may not be entirely truthful when speaking to journalists

Perhaps JoB is being mischievous , perhaps that is what he is paid to do. It promotes peeps anxious to engage with him and twitter traffic and LBC must be proud of him. What he really thinks perhaps we will never know.

There was presumably a team of script writers for this horror show. Name and shame is needed.

YouTube video by Kermode and Mayo's Take Mark Kermode reviews Melania

Absolutely the best take about the Amazon Bribe Film "Melania" ⤵️

Reform don't have a policy forum. They just employ a bloke who writes down conversations he overhears in saloon bars of pubs in the Home Counties.

Looking for evidence of Trump's guilt in the Epstein files is NOT like looking for a needle in a haystack.
It's like looking for a needle in a barrel of needles.

Would be specified in his employment t's
and c's. Complicating factors are 'gross misconduct' charges. He will not be short of employment legal advice. Reputational advice hmmmm

Sports reporting now fully merged into entertainment section apparently.

Dealer commission 'feature'

I used to design systems for dealers etc. Systems designers know 'stuff'

This has been the case for decades.

Or EU news? I live in UK which is part of EU though #r4today editors think, or are directed to think, EU news is not important.

The media is only part of the problem.

He may be an idiot but he sure has perfect ‘scooting’ form. 😂

#r4rtoday interesting interview with previous Chinese ambassador giving perspective on Chinese visit, cut short by promotion for this evening's #bbcaq where we will not hear anything of a similar quality. Grrr

Agree. Where is the EU news?

💯

#r4rtoday suggest producers find an opponent for Lord Falconer who doesn't lie on air and who is somewhere near his level of intellect.

Brill thank you. Made my day

Illegal HMOs shut down over safety concerns after landlord ignored warnings The two six-bedroomed properties out in Tamworth, 'failed to meet even the most basic of living standards and legal requirements'

It appears that the 'Rogue Landlord' involved in this story is Reform UK Councillor Edward Harris, Chairman of Warwickshire County Council (of Polesworth).

#r4today featured an interesting discussion on state of veterinary industry. Next time a 'journalist' has a chance to question/interview Nigel F could he be asked if his view on the NHS differs from this model and if so how?

Likely to be the the data centres which are sprouting up llke weeds here in S Wales. One proposed site will remove a 'park and ride' heavily used by staff and patients to local major hospital. Hmmm

😰😰😰

Isn't he on a plane to China with KS and a trade delegation. He should be quiet and start listening to people who know what they are doing.
