1/. It isn’t remotely credible that #Hancock had no idea of the links btw #Palantir & #FacultyAI - who run the NHS #COVID data store - & #CambridgeAnalytica
And yet, had due diligence been done, Palantir wouldn’t have been embedded at the heart of the NHS
2/. It also isn’t remotely credible (or intelligible) that #Cummings had no knowledge of what #Palantir are doing in the NHS “other than on ICU bed capacity”
It also isn’t credible when he claims he thinks #FacultyAI “do not have personalised data at all”
3/. Two questions by about #Palantir & #FacultyAI
Two garbled, nonsensical answers from @MattHancock & @Dominic2306
It’s a shame it’s taken 16 months before these question have finally been asked
It’s a shame the media still ignore it
But as this👇shows, Palantir are central.
4/. It isn’t surprising that questions aren’t being asked
This chart👆suggests the #PalantirPlan is being ‘overseen’ by intelligence agencies in UK & US
A clue to how high-up & how far-back the plan goes is the appointments of the #PalantirThree at the START of the Trump admin.
5/. Palantir CEO, Peter Thiel, backed Trump in 2016, & #Palantir employees rptdly worked with #CambridgeAnalytica, harvesting Facebook data ahead of the elections
Are their finger prints also all over the #Brexit referendum?
Are these things connected?
6/. “Ask forgiveness, not permission”
That’s the philosophy of these ‘visionaries’ & ‘“super forecasters”
They believe that our fates lie in our genes, not in the stars
Is this an attempt to control that fate?
To break free of regulations, ethics committees & the rule of law?
7/. “We’ve arranged a society based on science & technology, in which nobody understands anything about science & technology. This combustible mixture of ignorance & power, sooner or later, is going to blow up in our faces” (Carl Sagan)
That time is now👇
8/. On 29/6/20, Blair’s ex-Chief of staff – someone who knows about political skulduggery – wrote on Cummings:
“This looks like the beginning of a rolling coup. It starts with the civil service then moves on to the judiciary & the media”
Could it be part of a much bigger coup?
