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'.

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.

Based on this insane EPA declaration today,
If any US Based Auto Manufacturer decides to scrap their environmental and mileage commitments, we're going to be promoting the largest boycott in US history. You will pay dearly in the marketplace.

Ireland, Day 1056 of The Rain. Everything is saturated to the grey of the sky. Moss covers every surface. The outdoors sounds like constant static. The entire staff of Met Éireann is on mental health leave. I’ve forgotten what dry clothes feel like.
It is still a yellow weather alert.

I don’t think we make a big enough deal that the capitalism mouse trap we have built in America has heaped millions and millions of dollars upon absolute fucking imbecile mouth breathers like Jake Paul. A crushing indictment of the whole system.

New Epstein emails show Peter Mandelson secretly advising JPMorgan’s CEO on how to fight Labour’s 2009 bankers’ bonus tax - even suggesting he “mildly threaten” the Chancellor.
Mandelson was Business Secretary at the time.
