We were in front of the Palantir offices in London this morning where NHS senior leaders were meeting the company that has no place in our health service! "Workers, students, patients say: Palantir cannot stay."

We endorse this demonstration because safe, secure, and genuinely affordable housing is fundamental to health justice. If we are serious about reducing health inequalities and advancing health justice, we must get serious about housing. Brick by brick, home by home, so our health can thrive!

We call on the health community to take action, speak loudly against actions of the US and Israel, and call on the UK government to act to end the perpetration of this violence. www.medact.org/2026/stateme...

Medact research manager Hil Aked welcomed the Birmingham trust’s decision to withdraw from the programme, describing it as “unethical and Islamophobic”. “Mental health workers should be providing patients with care, not spying on them for police.” www.middleeasteye.net/news/nhs-men...

Big news! @bma.org.uk now advising doctors not to engage with Palantir's NHS data platform! They say there must be a "complete break from Palantir technologies in the NHS", due to the company's track record, e.g. with ICE, and the risk to patient trust. www.bmj.com/content/392/...

To our fellow health workers, and all those showing us the real meaning of community care in the USA: we stand with you because we know our struggles are the same. www.medact.org/2026/blogs/f...
