I sometimes wonder how much the fact that Health ministers are usually drawn from the demographic that uses the NHS the least (able bodied, white men, young-middle aged) is a factor in it's issues. It probably plays a part in the obsession with apps and convenience over continuity and human contact.

They're obsessed with inserting the private sector. More shareholders to take a cut of an ever dwindling budget, leaving a poorer service and fewer staff. The bungs and kickbacks help the decision making.

Private Eye reports that the same private developers who extracted £140m+ from the freeport, Musgrave and Corney, will receive more than £400m on land they'll buy for approximately £280 for the Anthropic data centre. Same land. Same partners. New designation.

The sequence: Sunak creates the freeport. Public money remediates the land. Freeport fails by its own stated terms. Site rebranded as AI Growth Zone. Anthropic named as partner. Sunak joins Anthropic. Private developers receive £400m+.

This is not coincidence. It is the logical conclusion of a model in which public designation, public funding, and public remediation exist to generate private returns, and in which the politicians who build the model are absorbed into the corporate structures that benefit from it.

UK offshore tax havens are epicenters of global corruption. Secrecy is used to launder money, evade taxes, bust sanctions, shield crooks. Money flows to the City of London. Despite promises, they obstruct transparency. UK has legal responsibility for good governance of its tax havens. Must act.

Palantir (UK subsidiary) — the standout case Pre-tax profit (2024): £25.3m UK tax paid: £2m Effective UK tax rate: 8% (vs 25% standard rate) This is the clearest example of a high-profit company paying unusually low UK tax. Rotten to the core but still ignored by government.

I have written to the Cabinet Secretary to seek assurances that the Prime Minister’s Chief of Staff, who was lobbying for the privatised water industry until recently, has had no involvement in talks about the future of Thames Water.

25th August 2026
Dear Antonia,
It is reported in the media today that the Prime Minister has ‘shelved’ plans to take Thames Water into administration.
As is well known, the Chief of Staff in Downing Street James Purnell was until his appointment, the Chief Executive of Flint Global, whose clients it is widely reported include members of the privatised water industry, and Thames Water’s bondholders.
The Times reports that the Prime Minister has been ‘advised by officials’ not to go ahead with special administration. In addition to James Purnell, can you confirm that no other officials involved in this process have links to the privatised water industry, and have accepted no hospitality from anyone associated with or acting on behalf of members of the water industry, including Flint Global, post the departure of James Purnell.
It is especially concerning that the Times reports that the Prime Minister has listened to advice that even the half measure of temporary special administration would be costly and run into legal issues. Of course, this is what advisers and lobbyists for the privatised water industry will be saying and it is the ‘advice’ James Purnell would have been making weeks ago, It is also highly unlikely to be true, given the repeated catastrophic failures of Thames Water, including polluted rivers, sky high bills and water shortages, Thames Water could be taken into public ownership right now and Thames Water would not have a legal leg to stand on.
The public and I expect a proper explanation for this decision, including an update to parliament at the first possible time, and assurances that James Purnell has had nothing at all to
