  1. Government using national security as ‘smokescreen’ in Apple encryption row | Computer Weekly

    Senior Conservative MP David Davis told Computer Weekly there was “no credible case” for the government to refuse to tell Parliament how many notices it issues each year to telecoms and internet companies.

    “The government is being dishonest in its use of ‘national security’ as a smokescreen to avoid telling the public how often it has ordered tech companies to hand over data or undermine encryption,” he said.

  7. you'll have seen that #DavidDavis intervened to help a #homeless man who was being attacked (then offering him a bed for the night).

    For Davis this is a brilliant profile raising incident:

    on the one hand, he can burnish his claim to be a proper 'hard man' not like the suit wearing pretenders who are all talk;

    on the other, its a good downpayment on any prospective return of compassion to UK #politics.

    I'm not so cynical to suggest this is why he intervened but its likely served him well!

  8. @orangutanwriter I heard #DavidDavis talking about #refugees

    He pointed out that many come from countries that we have bombed or are complicit in the bombing and conflicts

    #tory telling the obvious, but often unspoken, truth

    I will guarantee you will never hear anyone in #Labour say this

  9. Is Scottish national Jagtar Singh Johal expendable in the UK's pursuit of a trade deal with India?

    Given Foreign Office refusal to raise Mr Johal's case with the Indian government in recent discussions, the answer would appear to be yes. There is even an accusation of MI5 and MI6 collusion in Mr Johal's abduction by Punjab police.

  10. US spy-tech firm Palantir was a shoo-in for a multi-million-pound NHS contract months before the deal was signed, emails obtained by openDemocracy appear to show.

    The email exchange from 2020, in which senior #NHS executives discussed the budget for a new national data platform, sees more than one person referring to #Palantir as the recipient of the funding.

  11. Bibby Stockholm evacuation shows 'startling incompetence'"

    Just think of the good David Davis could do if he were not a Tory, and was not a Brexiteer. Such wasted talent. Tragic, it is.
