Palantir Technologies, Peter Thiel and the NHS

Early day motion 1086, tabled 22 April 2025 by Martin Wrigley (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 5 members.

That this House believes that Palantir and Peter Thiel should have their hands off our NHS; further believes every individual deserves high-quality healthcare, accessible when and where it’s needed and free at the point of use; furthermore believes in the importance of upholding British democratic values throughout the work of the Government and all public services; notes the negative implications of Government contracts being awarded to those who do not share such values; further notes with concern the awarding of NHS data contracts to Palantir Technologies, a company whose founder and chair has repeatedly been shown not to be in alignment with such values; and supports the call of the Science, Technology and Innovation Committee to protect the interests of data owners, such as NHS patients.

Signatures by party: Liberal Democrat 4, DUP 1.
