Anyone else worried about the mining of personal and public data to the private sector to create money? Because that’s what these AI deals Starmer is planning really are. An exploitation of peoples’ information, before they can adequately demonstrate how that information will be safely held.🚨

“It's now Labour's job is to deliver the change that was promised” - it won’t. The City and BlackRock who the party are leaning on to “stimulate the economy” not redistribute wealth, which is what the country needs, will do absolutely nothing.
The last Tory government left the country in a mess.
Record NHS waiting lists, not enough teachers, crumbling infrastructure, millions without a home of their own and record energy prices.

This is a reminder, that now, under Labour and @rthonwesstreeting.bsky.social - 20% of NHS funding (from us the tax payer) - gets rediverted to the private sector.
In return they see 10% of patients (the simplest cases no less).
This is not a good business model.

This isn't change. Starmer was never a reformist. You would need a different type of Labour leader for that. One that isn't bought so easily.
"Starmer says 'proportional representation is not our policy' and that 'we won’t be making time for it' and gently suggests that Davey didn’t do too badly under the current system."
