Green Leader Delivers Notice To Remove Palantir
7.1
Green Party leader Zack Polanski will deliver a contract termination notice to Palantir’s London office at 9.30am on 22 January. He objects to the seven‑year £330m NHS Federated Data Platform contract awarded in 2023, citing a 2025 British Medical Association resolution raising transparency and human‑rights concerns. The move pressures the contract ahead of its February 2027 renewal and intensifies scrutiny of NHS data governance.

- 3Impacts procurement: £330m seven‑year Federated Data Platform contract faces political pressure ahead of 2027 renewal.
