Allowing private equity opportunities to treat vulnerable children as cash cows is a moral atrocity @andreaegangs.bsky.social is such a powerful voice calling this out It is time for change. Add your name to our petition calling for an end to profits in children's care: vist.ly/5h9na

Quote from Unison GS, Andrea Egan: "In my experience as a residential support worker and children’s registered social worker,... vulnerable young people are frequently allocated to care placements that are hundreds of miles away from their families, education provision and social networks. The system is failing these vulnerable kids, who have become the new cash cow for unscrupulous business opportunists. The government has announced tougher measures against dodgy providers and introduced caps on profits – but it has essentially accepted an ongoing role for profit-making companies in childcare and foster homes. That’s not good enough. Anyone who cares about vulnerable children should be opposed to private equity and landlords being anywhere near children’s homes. "

New: I obtained docs from the IRS about a $1.8 million Palantir contract that began early last year. They provide new details on a custom tool Palantir built for the IRS, the “Selection and Analytic Platform," and the wildly bloated ecosystem it's supposed to simplify: www.wired.com/story/docume...

Documents show the tax agency is testing a Palantir tool to surface “highest-value” audit and investigation targets from a maze of legacy systems.

I love how Trump, Vance and Musk style themselves defenders of free speech, while simultaneously banning government agencies from mentioning climate change or diversity (inc biodiversity!), equity and inclusion, or even possessing maps which show the Gulf of Mexico. Torquemadas the lot of them.
