The Great Palantir Eviction!

Whilst our website is under reconstruction we need to bring to your attention an urgent breakthrough in the fight against Palantir.
The House of Commons Science, Innovation and Technology Committee published a damning report on June 3, 2026.
The cross-party committee explicitly branded Palantir’s growing footprint across UK public services as an “unacceptable point of weakness,” warning that reliance on a US-based firm with deep ties to foreign defense/intelligence leaves the UK “seriously exposed” and vulnerable to “vendor lock-in.” They formally recommended that the government utilize the February 2027 break clause in the £330 million NHS Federated Data Platform (FDP) contract to transition to a UK-based or in-house alternative.
Using these specific templates will help you demand immediate action from your local MP and NHS England leadership.

Subject: Immediate Action Required: Terminate the NHS Palantir Contract (SITC Report)

Dear [MP Name],

As one of your constituents, I am writing to urge you to take immediate action following the June 3, 2026 report published by the House of Commons Science, Innovation and Technology Committee.
The committee’s cross-party findings are definitive: they have branded Palantir’s growing presence across our public sector as an “unacceptable point of weakness.” The report explicitly warns that relying on a US-based provider for critical infrastructure leaves our public services “at the mercy of foreign actors” and creates a dangerous vendor lock-in where the company can eventually “name their fee.”

Furthermore, the committee highlighted a “clear mismatch with UK values,” pointing to the extreme political manifestos of CEO Alex Karp and co-founder Peter Thiel’s public assertion that “the NHS makes people sick” and should be ripped from the ground.
The committee has provided a clear off-ramp: the government must exercise the February 2027 break clause in the £330m NHS Federated Data Platform contract.
As my representative, I ask that you:

Publicly back the committee’s recommendations to terminate Palantir’s NHS contract via the 2027 break clause.
Write to the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care to demand an immediate transition plan toward a sovereign, UK-owned, or in-house data alternative.
Demand full transparency regarding recent revelations that Palantir contractors were granted “unlimited access” to identifiable NHS patient information.

Public trust is the foundation of our healthcare system. We cannot allow citizens’ private health data to be managed by a foreign military-tech firm that views our NHS with hostility.
I look forward to hearing how you plan to vote and act on this critical issue.

Yours sincerely,

[Your Name]

Subject: Patient Notice: Review of the Federated Data Platform (FDP) Contract / Palantir

To the Leadership Team of NHS England,

I am writing as an NHS patient to express my deep concern regarding the continued deployment of the Federated Data Platform (FDP) under the management of Palantir Technologies, following the parliamentary report published on June 3, 2026.

The Parliamentary Science, Innovation and Technology Committee has officially recommended that the government cancel Palantir’s contract, citing an “unacceptable point of weakness” in our national digital infrastructure.
While NHS England has previously defended the contract by citing operational efficiencies, the parliamentary committee has made it clear that these short-term gains do not justify the “debilitating dependencies” being built into our healthcare system. Furthermore, the report raised serious alarms over recent disclosures that external staff have been granted “unlimited access” to identifiable patient information.

As a service user, I expect the NHS to protect patient data with the highest standards of data hygiene and national sovereignty. Continuing to embed a company whose founders have openly called for the dismantling of the NHS completely erodes patient trust and consent.

I urge NHS England to immediately comply with Parliament’s cross-party recommendation to prepare for the February 2027 break clause, halt any further integration of Palantir systems, and pivot to a domestic or in-house infrastructure that aligns with UK values.

Yours sincerely,

[Your Name]
