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.

The notion that care workers are “low-skilled” because they are low-paid has perverse logic could. Care work is highly skilled work, and it is only paid so poorly because of the failure of successive governments to value it properly.

Britain’s care system promotes modern slavery. A genuinely humane government would reform it | Andrea Egan
New proposals that would force poorly paid migrant workers to wait longer for earned settlement are nothing more than an assault on working-class people, says Unison’s general secretary Andrea Egan

I love the gentle warmth & humanness in this blog. And *so much* skill & expertise.
The human & technical sides of care are totally compatible. And when caring for people at such a tender time of life.
Really inspiring.

The govt is refusing to commit to an inquiry into the MOD's contracts with US-based spy tech giant Palantir despite the web of shady connections between Mandelson, Epstein, and Palantir co-founder Peter Thiel - this absolutely stinks.

Crockett: "The US is falling apart, partially bc he's allowing for killings in the street, but also bc we have a 34 count convicted felon being shielded from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."

Hundreds of volunteers hitting the streets this morning in Gorton and Denton.
Lower bills, tax the super-rich- hope will win.
