Palantir has a track record of supporting mass deportations in the US and enabling Netanyahu’s genocide in Gaza. Letting Palantir near our health records is a risk we can’t afford to take.
Email your trust now - say NO to Palantir software.

I have sent letters to the trusts in my area.
Palantir’s toxic spy-tech is infiltrating the NHS. It can't be trusted with our health records, so we need to come together and stop this rollout before it’s too late.
Email the NHS now.

People are facing increasing taxes from the freeze in allowances. Inequality was not tackled. With potentially less money in people’s pockets, it’s not surprising they aren’t out spending.

Under the current criminalisation of protest, even the famous campaigners that we celebrate in the UK would be at risk of arrest simply for peacefully protesting.

The right to protest is a cornerstone of our democracy; we cannot allow its restriction to go unchallenged.

This is a crisis. In a crisis we need to do what we can to stop making things worse.
We can make changes, we can use our voice to speak out, we can campaign for a better life.
Even in Wiltshire, supporting cheap renewable energy and insulated homes to bring costs down reduces inequality.
“The alternative is a free-for-all, and we know what free for all means. Floods will spread, communities will be destroyed, but there will always be a group of rich people and rich companies that will be able to protect themselves”

Beginning of the year we had 335 members. This has increased a whopping 85% . We are bowled over by the number of people stepping up and willing to get involved,many of whom are young and keen to instigate a change of direction in the UK towards one of hope, compassion and inclusivity.

Right now the water companies are pumping sewage into our waters and charging us for the privilege.🤮
This has to stop. Greens would take control of water and put it back into public ownership 💧🐟 🦦. No more big fat bonuses for failing.

@greenparty.org.uk scored positively across the board for support of public ownership of essential services.
In Wiltshire that's important because a private company, HCRG, is contracted to supply community services worth £1.3bn- money that could have gone to the NHS.

None other than East Wilts MP, Danny Kruger, who recently defected to Reform, features in this article.

We need to be aware, vigilant and denounce these threats to all our human rights.
We want policies not deity in our Parliament.

At the last election in East Wilts, Danny Kruger was the only candidate to have lost votes and could only muster support from a third of the voters. Reform came 4th.
Our voting system doesn't deliver what the people want.
