SHARE! In Starmer’s speech last night he apologised to Epstein victims for the denial of justice they suffered.
He said his govt would always seek truth against the powerful.
But HIS OWN GOVT blocked justice for 400+ Al Fayed victims & refused to investigate trafficking. Starmer is fully aware.
💥 GOOD.
Because that £240 million contract gifted to Palantir, with no competition…
…after Starmer had an off-the-books meeting with Mandelson and Palantir…
…while Mandelson was officially LOBBYING FOR Palantir and so personally financially benefiting from such links and contracts…
Stinks.
Pressure building on govt to come clean about Mandelson's role in bringing US spy-tech firm Palantir into the heart of our NHS.
The fingerprints of Mandelson and his lobbying firm are all over these deals.
The rot goes to the heart of this Labour govt

FT exclusive:
“The US state department is set to fund Maga-aligned think-tanks and charities across Europe to disseminate Washington’s policy positions and challenge perceived threats to free speech.”

Corporatist fascism, plain and simple.
DHS is trying to get tech companies to hand over data on Trump critics.
This is unconstitutional, and Congress must shut it down, before we turn into East Germany.

Happening now in Silicon Valley: marchers have surrounded the Palantir building and are holding a prayer vigil for victims of ICE, while video of ICE and Palantir crimes is projected on the building. #AbolishICE#ICEOut#Palantir#PaloAlto
The supposed free speech champions over in the US government are demanding that US tech companies hand over data about Trump critics.
And guess what - that means Europeans' data also.
Everything in this article is disgusting. If one of the reasons for incarcerating people is to rehabilitate them, then this is what abject failure looks like.
Eva's billionaire husband Glenn Dubin was the first person to rape Virginia Giuffre. Dubin is vice chair of the Zionist lobby group the American Jewish Committee which regularly visits Tel Aviv to meet Israeli officials and helped lead the crackdown against pro-Palestine protests
Fascinating recent debate among the Lords, a question on 'Think Tanks: Funding', by Lord Rennard: "To ask His Majesty’s Government what assessment they have made of the level of transparency required for the funding of think tanks, including in relation to funding from abroad."
Obsessing over water supplies & worried that there's no captain on this ship. Nobody knows the true picture over who's using the critical resource, and the global picture is pretty dire. I've pulled my latest articles together to try to make sense of it watershedinvestigations.com/dry-taps-flo...
Why has the Attorney General's advice changed? What has changed since?
Before Christmas, the whole Dáil voted for a motion that the Occupied Territories Bill should be passed including services before the end of the day.
This government continues to water it down, and delay again.

NEW: I spent hours combing through the references to #MeToo in the latest tranche of Epstein files. I found Epstein closely tracked the fallout of #MeToo, joked about being in a "pariahs club," and advised men accused of misconduct behind the scenes 19thnews.org/2026/02/jeff...
"We are now seeing eviction rates that have not been seen in Ireland since the 1850s."
A damning reality laid bare in this piece of well-researched analysis.
A major enabler, funder and amplifier of Bjorn Lomborg is Bill Gates, who simultaneously sought to position himself as a climate hero (fooling some people who really should have known better).
Billionaires gonna billionaire.
William Nordhaus received the Nobel Memorial Prize for these flawed economic models, and Bjorn Lomborg built a highly lucrative career on them.
They told rich and powerful people what they wanted to hear.
While helping to consign us all to catastrophe.

I'm horrified. This image is from the Anthropic lawsuit case, showing the destructive scanning warehouse. I want to know if there's a list of destructively scanned paperbacks. This is NOT the same as the works list harvested via pirate sites, this has got to be a separate lawsuit. 😡#writingcommunity

1. Noam Chomsky's response to the first tranche of Epstein docs - arrogant, high-handed, obfuscatory and, we now know, dishonest - reminded me of something: his response to my questions about genocide denial, 15 years ago. 🧵

This coming from a gov who is trying to remove regular people's access to environmental info and justice and participation in the planning process.
Just voluntarily handing over enormous power to corporations.
We already have laws protecting investors, if they aren't good enough then change them
I know there's a massive amount going on but the government amending the arbitration act to sign us up to CETA needs serious coverage and the risks of corporate courts need to be spelled out.

Not only did the cybercrime unit in Paris raid the X offices.
They rubbed it in and posted on X that the X offices have been raided.
Then retired their Twitter account, so their final post is that they are raiding Musk.
Absolute legend.
Magnifique! 🇫🇷
🚨The French offices of Elon Musk's X have been raided by the Paris prosecutor's cyber-crime unit, as part of an investigation into suspected offenses including unlawful data extraction and complicity in the possession of child pornography.

The main business model of Silicon Valley from Uber to AirBnB to Spotify is: skim profit off others' goods and labor. Often in ways that are exploitative of individuals or destructive of larger forces (as with Amazon and the retail that kept people heading out in public).
“Technical failures, cyber-attacks and natural disasters can all bring down key parts of the internet. And as the US government makes increasing demands of European leaders, it is possible to imagine Europe losing access to the digital infrastructure provided by US firms.”
After the Epstein disclosures Peter Mandelson has just resigned from the UK House of Lords.
However, he keeps the title.
There is also the question of leaking sensitive information as a Minister, his appointment as the UK ambassador to the US, and those who lauded him.
Amnesty International mapped the finances of 65 anti-rights groups operating across the UK. The largest spenders are UK branches of US organisations (£34 million), ultra-conservative Christian policy/advocacy groups (£31.5 million), and anti-abortion organisations (£28.5 million).
