Not another one............................
Andrew Pearce. Yet another Tory, yet another Daily Mail employee, yet another @GBNEWS presenter, is now under criminal investigation for sexual offences. @GBNEWS seems to be rather safe haven for them.

Tory govt is giving our private medical NHS data to an American former spy-company Palantir.... Owned by Peter Thiel who is a Donald Trump financial donor Minister refuses to say if our most personal data can then be sold on Read this thread for the full horror of it all. @StefSimanowitz has been on this story for a very long time #GeneralElectionN0W
Replying to @StefSimanowitz
107/. "You called patient data an untapped resource. I asked Alex Karp if Palantir would ever be in a position to sell on this data & he said it would be down to you. Would you sell on patient data?" MINISTER "I’m not going to get into some hypothetical"

The UK Government is trying to hang this portrait of King Charles in every public building including schools. The SNP rejected it and saved £8m that they can actually spend on education. If you want it out of our schools RT.
