Milburn eventually stopped, clearly angry, and said:
"Hey, hey, HEY! I said no! Just stop! I said no, and told Pring to go through "the correct channels" if he wanted an interview.
When Pring said it was "perfectly legitimate" for a reporter to challenge him about such an influential report - which carries significant safeguarding risks - Milburn said: "It's perfectly legitimate to fucking doorstep me, is it?"
He then added: "Fucking wanker."
Milburn then told him again to "go through the right channels" and nudged him with his arm.
When Pring objected, he said "Oh, don't be so sensitive...
Milburn then walked away with his assistant.

Later today protesters will demand 'No Palantir in our NHS'
While they protest, someone, somewhere will get an operation scheduled earlier, a cancer diagnosis quicker, a loved one home from hospital sooner - thanks to the software that those protesters would switch off.
Here is what you won't hear. Trusts using the software have recorded:
• 117,000 additional operations
• 14.3 per cent reduction in discharge delays for long stay patients
• 5.6 per cent improvement in the number of people receiving a cancer diagnosis within 28 days
As a more articulate person once said: 'certain facts, although in a sense known to be true, are inadmissible.'

I’m not much interested in the internal politics of the Greens but I will note here that the key difference between “chauvinistic militants” and “egalitarian liberals” on Palestinians is that the former roar for their eradication while the latter look pained and tell everyone to chill out about it.

Quite difficult to obscure just how radicalised and extreme this stuff is, which is awkward because we have been told in no uncertain terms that it's actually *opposing* it that's the violent extremist position. Bit of a pickle, make no mistake.
