    The cynic in me says #Streeting has seen a way out that avoids him having to take any blame for the mess he's made of the NHS.

    “Pausing healthcare based on evidence that's been manufactured to suit an agenda is politics” - @ludovicparsons.bsky.social

    How concerned should we be about #NHSEngland pausing new gender-affirming hormone prescriptions for 16- and 17-year-olds, while launching a review into adult services? 🧵

  5. #Palantir: Why is the #Israel-linked #surveillance firm embedded in #Britain's #NHS?

    Medical professionals, #lawyers and #activists express concern over the #Techgiant's government contracts given ties to #USImmigration and #IsraeliSurveillance operations

    By Fleur Hargreaves, January 28, 2026

    "The #UKGovernment is facing growing pressure over its decision to award large government contracts to #PalantirTechnologies, a US-based data and #ArtificialIntelligence [#AI] company.

    "Partially funded by the #CIA at its inception, the company has faced heavy scrutiny after receiving a £330m ($413m) contract with #NHSEngland in 2023, which is up for renewal in 2027.

    "It was also recently awarded a £240m deal with the British #MinistryOfDefence (#MoD) in December, three times more than a previous contract signed in 2022.

    "Palantir entered into a strategic partnership with the MoD in September, in which it pledged a £1.5bn investment to 'boost military AI' and to 'work together to transform lethality in the battlefield', according to a government press release.

    "Aspects of the deal included developing a so-called '#KillChain', which uses advanced data management and #AI to better strike 'enemy target[s]'.

    "This increased integration of the tech firm within the UK’s health service and armed forces has raised alarm among campaigners, who point to the company’s involvement in the #genocide in #Gaza and US President Donald Trump’s lethal campaign against unauthorised immigration.

    "British MPs have also raised concerns about Palantir’s defence contracts following an investigation that revealed the #SwissArmy had rejected the company over fears that US intelligence agencies would gain access to sensitive data."

  6. I just want a COVID vaccine. I'm immune compromised and eligible so why don't I have one? Because the IT system won't let me.

    Fair enough, apps have funny five minutes, there's a phone number I can call. Apparently all they do is go into the app. They can't book either. The sympathy down the line is real but #ComputerSaysNo All they can suggest is a call to #NHSEngland and request my record is altered as that must be the problem.

    So I call them. They are just bemused 🙄

  7. The past week I've been screwed around by my doctors trying to get my hormones, they told me I needed to go for an appointment to re-evaluate my hormones, but they didn't seem to want to do it well I was still on them.

    I was luckily able to get them to give me more after a week of pushing and still will have a talk with them in several weeks when I can talk to them but my mood has been effected by this greatly not only because of how I was treated but because my hormone levels are now all over the place.

  8. After an 'eventful' week, this evening I shall mainly be drinking a rather delish Tony Bish.

  9. Shutting down NHS England?
    Having been part of middle-almost-senior management in a huge NHS Trust until I retired quite a few years ago - I never understood what value the quango added to the organisation, and I do know that at the time the Trust board considered it to be 'sand in the gears'.
    So - removing it is long overdue in my view.

    I believe that this will move decision making closer to the people that the Trusts & CCGs serve, and should make decision making quicker. There's a strong possibility that it will free up money for patient care.
    Let's hope!
