Critics press UK government over Palantir's growing role
Original: Waiting for UK to evict Palantir, golden child of Peter Thiel's fascistic, deluded mind? Don't hold your breath. Britain
Commentators are questioning whether the UK government will ever distance itself from Palantir, the data analytics firm founded with backing from Peter Thiel. Critics argue that Britain's close alignment with the United States, combined with Thiel's financial support for Donald Trump's 2024 campaign, makes any British move against the company unlikely, while Palantir continues to win lucrative public sector contracts.
Why now: Palantir's expanding role in UK public services and its close ties to the Trump administration are drawing renewed criticism.
