This is how our government has been corrupted:

1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office.
2) Elected officials rewrite the rules in the donors' favor.
3) Donors make a huge profit.
4) Repeat.

For the sake of democracy, we must get Big Money out of politics.

We've written to Wes Streeting: we support the use of NHS data in the public interest but if he continues to insist on using Palantir we will help people force the NHS to delete their medical records.
Wes Streeting must rule Palantir out of his NHS technology revolution - Good Law Project
Streeting is planning to put our intimate health data on central care records. It’s time for him to address the elephant in the room.
