      The less Palantir contracts in the UK the better.

      Perhaps get on with tackling petty crime and getting some housing built next Mr Khan?

    2. I hope so! Installing literal spy software in sensitive areas, made by a company that has pledged to do whatever it takes to make their own nation number 1, seems like an idea that might bring regret.

      The problem we have is coming those who get indirect backhanders that even though this is good for them personally, it’s not for the greater good of the country.

      I look forward to it, and then I look forward to most people pretending it didn’t happen and continuing to insist he doesn’t do anything or stand for anything

      Surely something that affects our national security the literal private health information of each person in the UK and something that blatantly privatises the data and information side of our health service and law enforcement should be put to a vote to the people who it will directly affect? I had no idea about this until about a week ago but had this actually been approved by parliament?

      Would it not be more appropriate to use a UK based tech company to develop a system that can do the same – we are after all intending to be an AI powerhouse or whatever the intentions where under both the Tories and Labour. This would increase jobs and reinvest tax/pay in the UK rather than paying more big American tech firms for services that clearly aren’t as secure as they were a year or so ago and the money wouldn’t be immediately sent abroad with minimal tax revenue collected by a service provided wholly in the UK.

      It’s like the government wants to piss money and our economy away.

    6. this should be the government stepping in, not falling on the shoulders of a local mayor to stop palantir getting a foothold in the uk crime database, and god knows what else.

      Good. The guys in charge of Palantir are fucking nuts. Peter Thiel is obsessed with the Antichrist and Alex Karp is like the homeless guy who shouts at pigeons became a Bond villain

      Palantir, lobbied for by Global Counsel, owned by Peter Mandelson.

      Maybe he should get his own house in order before anything else?

      Palantir will be nationalized by the next US President. There are useful nonmilitary, non-police services they can provide, but not anywhere close to how they operate now.
