The NHS data given to Palantir hasn't been anonymised so actually the USA/Israeli spy company has every single person's Medical Records. And they have even been paid £330m to steal them. AND the deal has been shown to have no measurable improvement on the NHS.

I'd call him more RECKLESS in "Star Wars" (1977)... but he was wise enough to shoot Greedo when he had to. In "Empire" he makes mistakes (trusting Lando), but, man, is he RESILIENT! In ROTJ, he's SO dense I swear he got brain-damaged in deep-freeze.
Here is my deep dive into something truly important. Is Han Solo stupid?

Far-right media and reactionary politicians seized on the Ceuta tragedy to fuel a dangerous and racist anti-immigrant narrative.
What if I told you Ceuta is an occupation, not migration crisis?

There is the battle scene in ‘The Prisoner’. While your typical 60s spy firefight in a secret lair is going on, “All you need is Love” by The Beatles plays.
Name your fav use of licensed music in a soundtrack.
Look how easy it was for corporations to steal from us: Step 1: Trump enacts tariffs Step 2: Corporations pass the tax onto consumers Step 3: SCOTUS declares it illegal Step 4: Corporations demand 166 billion refund FOR THEMSELVES Step 5: Corporations steal 166 billion from the middle class
ICYMI: We have to stop dividing our problems into “left & right" & start seeing our problems like “top vs bottom.” 977 U.S. billionaires have a combined wealth of 9.2 trillion & they funneled it out of the middle class. Then they keep us fighting with each other while they steal more.
MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE III is easily the most underrated of the MISSION films, with a great story, Philip Seymour Hoffman and some fantastic action… We think you should give it another try and here’s why: pod.fo/e/24b5c7
We're already in the last cycle of car-ownership. In the future all (driver-less) cars will be a service you subscribe to and summon with an app.
Often people ask "why should I care?" when a company is in financial trouble. Sony is desperate, spider man is the only IP they have left, they needed the new film to succeed, BMW & sony negotiated a LOT of cross promo money, like hell they both aren't gagging to get ther money's worth.

They don't give a toss about the world burning because they are dreaming about how much they can charge you for AC, food and water.
I hate that Who is seen as the only viable British terrestrial TV vehicle that can carry science fiction. They should use this lull to develop something new that doesn't come with the dead weight of historical baggage and toxic fandom.
Solving the "problems" currently plaguing Doctor Who will take time, the series' former showrunner Chris Chibnall has cautioned, explaining that the show's most pressing issue now is "primarily about money." https://bit.ly/3RUqeI6

Trump saved the Iranian government from collapse while giving them a fresh income stream. Republicans are proud of that.
Iranian officials say that while there will be no tolls charged the agreement includes a “service fee” to cover the environmental impact of the shipping, security for the cargo ships and tankers, and staffing. Revenues would be divided equally between Iran and Oman, two Iranian officials said.-NYT
Liddle was just one guy ultimately, but emblematic of a media culture that has - and continues to make - this country smaller, poorer and crueller for the rest of us. that's his legacy, a cog in an utterly grotesque machine

That's what taxes are, man. That's the definition of taxes. "You are subsidizing things you might never use" man shut the fuck up. My taxes currently subsidize like oil company exec private jets, you think I'm upset at low-income people eating inexpensive bananas?
Opinion: Mamdani's idea may sound appealing, but it's NYC taxpayers who will take the hit, subsidizing discounts they may never even use.
The Times, one of the leading voices when it comes to 'protecting women and girls' calling a man who assaulted his young pregnant girlfriend, said he would rape the kids if he was a teacher and called for child sex abuse porn to be legal, 'brilliant'
