The NHS Medics Who Think Treating the Cancer of Zionism is More Important Than Treating Their Patients’ Actual Cancer

Are critics of Palantir's NHS data platform putting ideology over faster cancer care and improved efficiency, wonders Steven Tucker. With opposition led by Health Workers For a Free Palestine, what do you think?

Does NHS secretly stand for ‘Nazi Health Service’? The NHS has many flaws, but to listen to some of its critics, you’d think it was being run by the descendants of Oswald Mosley or something – which, to a certain limited degree, it actually is. Louis Mosley is the grandson of Sir Oswald Mosley, the 1930s Führer of the British Union of Fascists and one-time Labour Party MP (the second one’s worse), and a man who, according to Green Party leader Zack Polanski, suspiciously “still insists on wearing a black shirt every single time he is on TV”. Mosley is the head of the UK wing of the US-based technology firm Palantir, which currently enjoys a £330 million contract to “reinvent the NHS” by updating its IT systems to join patient databases together to cut waiting times, apparently with some success. 

According to a leaked memo from the NHS’s Chief Data Officer Ming Tang, who sounds more like a valuable antique vase than a classic Nazi white supremacist, Palantir’s systems have been delivering “outstanding results”, helping managers organise 110,000 extra operations, which is the equivalent of having an extra three fully-booked hospitals a year, together with facilitating a 6.8% increase in cancer diagnoses being made within that all-important 28 days of initial referral. Like some newly prescribed super-suppository, Tang therefore desires to see “maximum product penetration” of Palantir’s software across NHS trusts everywhere. The problem is, not everybody working in today’s NHS wants Palantir

Your politocs do not belong in the National Health Socialism system ban it and fine them for any breaches. I note it’s mostly females – another reason to ban women feom voting and all positions of power. Show me one, current female who is running a highly successful business or public body. No, didn’t think we could find one.

I take my Star of David neckless off when going for a medical appointment in case I’m seen by someone who comes from a country where hatred of Jews is fed to children with their mother’s milk

Strange to be asked to pick a side, and suggest that if they’re upsetting pro-Palestine NHS staff, then Palantir are good for our nation’s health. Thiel sits on the Bilderberg steering committee, met with Wes Streeting at last year’s summit (Stockholm), whilst Palantir were handed a lucrative contract by Starmer, courtesy of an introduction from Mandelson (both with connections to the Trilaterals – all three with Starmer – as well as Epstein).

Agreed. The system(s) may or may not be good and helpful. They should be judged on their merits. It would not be the first enterprise software system that over-promised and under-delivered. I do wonder if trying to introduce more automation into the NHS is just putting a bandage on something that is not going to get much better without surgery.

The mission of HW4FP is pretty obviously to divert NHS funds to the usual woke political causes, just in the same way these people infiltrate any state- or state-funded organisation to to divert whatever resources it comands away from their intended purpose and to themselves and their campaigning instead. Because of this, all of its members should immediately be dismissed. There’s no need to even try to deal with the BS justifications they keep coming up with for this, eg, the “How your health data …” article.

I believe the background to how the NHS / Palantir contract was awarded is pretty murky and allegedly involves someone who is the victim of some nasty arsoning.

This Iranian lady has a point and makes a good analogy. I’m sure she’s distinguishing between those of us who are patriots and didn’t vote for any of this and oppose Islam and the globalists in positions of authority and their useful idiots who are making this all possible when she states ”Europe”. And it goes without saying that there should be zero tolerance for any type of political activism within the NHS. People hitting the streets to protest in their hospital scrubs should be hauled over the coals;

”This relationship between Europe and Muslims from the 3rd World, whether it’s the Islamic regime occupying Iran, the Palestinians, the Syrians, is like a woman in marriage to a violent, narcissistic addict. She is living in absolute hell. There is no future. Her children are in real danger every single day. Yet she refuses to leave him. No matter how much support she is given, no matter how many times she steps away, she always goes back to playing the long-suffering, self-sacrificing wife. She simply cannot let go of that role. And he knows it. That’s why he never stops. Why would he? He gets whatever he wants. He beats her,… Read more »

Please, let us not be shy.

1996: Approx. 160 Muslim councillors (153 Labour, 6 Lib Dem, 1 Conservative).

2024 over 500 Muslim councillors serving across the UK, according to the Labour Muslim Network. 
The first Muslim MP, Mohammad Sarwar, was elected in 1997.
A record 25 Muslim MPs were elected to the UK House of Commons in the 2024 general election.
Historic Firsts: In July 2024, Shabana Mahmood (our sooner or later next PM – any bets?) became the first Lord Chancellor to swear her oath on the Quran.

For more, please ask any question you wish and be proud, very proud, in the Caliphate UK gazettes:

I wonder whether we could just stop talking so much about jews. They are literally a tiny proportion of the world population.

I’m pretty sure that the most effective way to deal with anti-semitism is to ignore it as much as possible, rather than give it an inordinate amount of attention. The vast, vast, vast majority of anti-semites are just people with bigoted views that will go no further than talk about it to anyone who will pay attention.

I’m pretty sure that going on and on and on about anti-semitism is only making things worse.

Maybe. I generally think that talking about things is better than not talking about them, if they are significant. My issue with the topic is that the “talking” seems to descend quickly into entrenched positions and mud-slinging, which isn’t overly helpful.

I agree ToF. Since the MSM refuses to talk evenhandedly, it is left to the rest of us to discuss and bring some balance. Stephen Tucker’s blunt style (e.g. …..his own blog, …..which appropriately is full of shit) brings some entertaining treatment to that discussion.

I think we should stop framing specific issues in much more general and even generic terms. In this case, the issue is that people opposed to the policy of the government of Israel are trying to fleece the NHS budget to support their political cause (or rather, causes) and the government of Israel is obviously not happy about that. There’s no need to bring in Jews and Nazi and antisemitism here, all of these just serve to obscure the actual issue and to emotionalize it needlessly.

In this particular case, the interest of the government of Israel aligns with the interest of people using and paying for the NHS. This kind of political abuse of resources meant for completely different tasks ought to be ended. People who want to anti-colonialise, whatever that’s supposed to be, have no business doing so while being paid by the NHS and have no business to try to influence NHS procurement decisions in line with their political agenda(s).
