You're Palantir's senior VP, not an independent referee. The NHS confirms Palantir engineers can access identifiable patient data under controls. Two Commons committees have raised serious concerns. Proving you don't sell data doesn't answer those concerns.

You claimed £39,000 a year in taxpayer-funded London rent, more than the entire benefit cap allows any family in the country, while living 50 miles from Westminster in a multi-million pound farmhouse.
That’s not “standing up for people who work.”
That’s Benefits Street with a bigger budget and better PR.
Taxpayers have had enough of you.
Labour is governing for Benefits Street - more welfare, higher taxes, a bigger state.
We can’t afford it, and taxpayers have had enough.
Conservatives will stand up for people who work, do the hard yards - and bear the brunt of the bill.

Cressida Dick working for Palantir raises the same concerns I’ve expressed about Tom Watson.
What does a company gain when it recruits a former Labour deputy leader or a former Metropolitan Police commissioner? Their experience, yes. But also their contacts, influence and the authority associated with the offices they held.
This ‘revolving door’ corrodes confidence in politics, public service generally and in institutions such as the police.

Of course she has.
The British state is being handed over to a bunch of racist fascist profiteers

I find a good bench mark in life is how people treat animals. This is Russell Brand recounting his cruelty to the family dog as a child in his 2009 biography

Kuenssberg teeing up the Farage interview by speaking to Michel Barnier first so that Farage can then slag off Barnier. It’s so blatantly predictable.

The Nigel Farage interview with Laura Kuenssberg contained only one weak question, right at the end, about the various investigations he & his party members are facing. Which he didn't answer
Presumably a condition of his appearance
Good old Laura

"The American people have spoken and what they've said is mainly curse words aimed at Donald Trump"

Trump will REMAIN President, but what he CAN'T do now:
1. *Can't pass any law:*
Needs Parliament. With Democrats at 90, all his bills will be blocked.
2. *Can't get money:*
Parliament controls the budget. No funding for his MAGA projects, Wall etc.
3. *Faces Impeachment Risk:* Democrats can start investigations and even move impeachment.
4. *Can't appoint Judges/Officials freely:* Senate will block his picks.
5. *Can't do big foreign deals:*
Trade deals, war funding needs Parliament nod.
In short: He will stay in the White House, sign Executive Orders, but Parliament and Courts can overturn them.
He becomes a *Lame Duck President* - President in name, powerless in reality.

Coming soon - Nigel Farage on George Madgwick. 'I didn't really know him, never really met him. I wouldn't go down to the pub with him or anything like that'.

Well this aged well Nigel Farage
This isn't only a monumental result for the US, it's a huge result for the UK too. There will be some Labour MPs suggesting we should call an early election here
I just don't see our very own Temu Trump ever being elected now.

As I said on GB News yesterday, "I don't go with the consensus that Trump is going to get smashed."
It's this sort of astute political insight that would make me a brilliant Prime Minister.

The poppy is a quiet symbol of remembrance. It is NOT a pay & display item to prove you’re more patriotic than others, a photo opportunity or a competition. Wear it quietly, or not all but please do donate, that’s the important part, not this performative, opportunistic wankery.

#gmb this morning . Four incredibly wealthy women casually chatting away at how best to cut benefits for people who have next to nothing.
What a country eh
