#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."

As a citizen of #Switzerland, I often get a visceral reaction when I hear about #SwissArmy something. There are two companies making military issue knives, #Victorinox and #Wenger. The corkscrew was meant for officers.
