Resident doctors are striking over pay & blocked training posts.

The media says they’re “putting patients at risk” — but the real risk is a system failing doctors and the NHS.

#Palantir’s contracts with the UK government have caused controversy.

The British Medical Association said last week that doctors could refuse to use Palantir’s £340m #NHS federated data platform in some cases, in protest over the tech company’s role in facilitating #ICE activity in the US.’

I think there will soon be a political appetite for saying the way in which Palentir government contracts were awarded was if not illegal then definitely highly egregious.

I'm glad the British Epstein Scandal is growing to encompass Palatnir and Peter Thiel, all thanks to Peter Mandelson

When the Left Wing stands up for the Nation, it's against Foreign Paedo-Oligarchs wanting access to our every waking moment and thought....

Smago 13.07 EST

Jeremy Corbyn, the Your Party MP and former Labour leader, told Sky News
that he wanted a public inquiry into Peter Mandelson. Explaining why he
was not happy about the plan for the intelligence and security committee to
review Mandelson material being held back, he said:

44 [ don’t think the political establishment in Westminster or the senior
echelons of the civil service can be trusted to undertake the kind of inquiry
that’s necessary in these circumstances - because the web of Peter Mandelson
and Jeffrey Epstein goes very wide.

Idom’t think merely putting all this into the hands of a security intelligence
committee is good enough. I don’t agree with that at all.

He also said that one issue he would like an inquiry to consider were the
“strong suggestions that Mandelson was involved in negotiating favours on
behalf of various businesses trying to access our health service”.

This was a reference to the contract that Palantir has to provide data services
to the NHS.
Zack Polanski, the Green party leader, has also attacked the Palantir deal,
claiming that Mandelson was involved. Today he published an open letter to
‘Wes Streeting urging him to rip up the contract. And he asked for an
explanation as what role Mandelson played in it. He said:

44 Mandelson’s malign influence runs right through the heart of this
government and the decisions it has made. There are worrying questions to
answer about his role in the government’s deal with Palantir - a spy-tech firm
co-founded by a man who thinks the NHS should be ‘ripped up.”

Was the government's decision to trust this controversial company with British
people’s most sensitive and personal health data made on the basis of what's
best for our country - or was it yet another dodgy backroom deal brokered by
Mandelson for the benefit of his rich pals?

"Families of children with cancer to have travel costs covered"

I'm sure this will make a terrible time slightly less terrible for many families, and that is surely welcome.

But "children with cancer" seems oddly specific. What about adults with cancer who have to spend a fortune on getting to appointments? Or indeed people of any age with non-cancer diseases that need multiple visits to non-local hospitals?

So, the deal on US pharmaceuticals pricing struck with the Tangerine Tyrant (if he keeps to it) will cost the NHS around £1bn over the next three years... which thankfully is a pretty small proportion of the overall NHS budget, as the Treasury has refused to fund the deal, leaving it to be drawn from the health service's day-to-day budget.

Its just one more way central Govt. is ratcheting up the health crisis - holding the budget steady while increasing the NHS's costs.
