"In a bid to boost growth, Labour has thrown open government’s doors to controversial #US data analytics and surveillance company #Palantir."

Did everyone know that the head of Palantir UK is the grandson of Oswald Mosley, the guy who founded the #British Union of #Fascists in 1933. That seems way too on the nose. We are in the dumbest timeline.

Scottish National Party · Scotland is the only UK nation that is reducing child poverty — Scottish National PartyThe Labour Government are putting more children into poverty. It's time they changed course and followed Scotland's lead.

Sarwar has no shame. In an article in ‘The Times he states that ‘We need a first minister who will make a case for Scotland’ - that will be Scotland London then you sleekit bam?

there are plenty of things I don't agree with Paul Mason, esp. on tech policy. or current Labour gov't policies which can and should be criticised. including for not going as far at it should with dealing against inequality.

but this article from him is brilliant htsf.substack.com/p/we-demand- – and I'd prefer *that* Labour party any day over those corbynite red-brown morons with their tankism, delusions of grandeur and support of Islamists & authoritarians.
