Secretive US tech company Palantir is getting its claws into our public services - including running a huge patient database for our NHS.

Ministers could choose to scrap the deal early, with some MPs calling for ALL contracts with the company to stop. What would you want to see?

NEW: Lower-income families in the UK would have to wait 𝟭𝟯𝟳 𝗺𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵𝘀 for their living standards to double.

Sorry did we say months? We meant 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀. Work is no longer a guaranteed route out of poverty.

Nigel Farage’s response? “Not bothered”

Don’t know about you, but far-right shout-outs feel like something worth getting bothered about

“The Government changed the terms of the loan that I agreed to… I call that loan sharking.”

Anyone else fed up with politicians' divisive tactics? Gary Lineker is calling them out.

This wouldn’t be allowed in any other job.

How is Tony Blair comfortable holding a senior executive role when the UK won’t join…?

Great for the bosses, not so great for literally everyone else 🫠

Nicha’s 8yo son has had to leave the family home, feeling sick and unable to eat.

Why? Because of the disgusting, illegal dump on King Charles’ land nearby.

What more will it take for the King to clean up this filth?

We’re sick of elites dodging consequences.

Men with close ties to Jeffrey Epstein were protected, rewarded and allowed to carry on as normal. If justice means anything, it has to apply to the powerful too.

With investigations underway, we need to demand the full force of the law. Are you in?

Big money is buying too much influence in our politics.

Secretive companies, some linked to foreign billionaires, are donating millions to major political parties.

Should there be a cap on political donations?

Is tying flags to lamp-posts really a bigger priority than looking after our most vulnerable?

⚡𝘽𝙍𝙀𝘼𝙆𝙄𝙉𝙂: Our chlorinated chicken scoreboard is LIVE 🚦

Making you think twice about that trip down Tesco?

The two child benefit limit was responsible for driving child poverty to its current record high. It had a devastating impact on hundreds of thousands of young lives. The Government’s decision to scrap it will lift 450,000 children out of poverty.

This isn’t just a story about one disgraceful Lord - it’s a glimpse into how money is distorting every bit of our politics.

If someone as disreputable as Epstein can buy such easy access, what’s stopping anyone else?

BREAKING: Shocking new photo from the Epstein files puts Prince Andrew back in the spotlight

For years he’s dodged accountability while survivors are ignored, but justice shouldn’t be optional for the powerful

It’s time for Andrew to come clean and testify to US Congress. Give the victims justice.

We wish we didn’t have to keep saying this… but water bills are rising again while sewage still pours into our rivers and seas.

If we’re paying more, why is the system still broken?

25,000 tonnes of waste has been dumped next to homes and a primary school. The stench has forced local resident Nicha’s autistic son to leave the family home 💔

The landowner? King Charles.

This has to get sorted, now.

Is having politicians present the news (a) genius or (b) bad for our democracy?

(Clue: The answer is definitely 𝙉𝙊𝙏 genius.)

MPs shouldn’t be cashing in on second jobs. They should be working for the people who elected them.
January 30, 2026 at 10:14 AM
This is not a drill.

If that’s how bad their food standards are, it’s a hard no from us.
January 29, 2026 at 1:26 PM
❗Reform councillors are now saying they won’t close care homes after all – while also saying that no decision has been made.

People in Lancashire deserve better than this 𝘾𝙃𝘼𝙊𝙎. All the confusion is not fair on vulnerable older adults, not fair on their families, and not fair on staff.

Privatising the NHS isn’t “efficiency”, it’s a disaster.

We want a properly funded health care service that’s free at the point of use, not one where you have to pay to survive.

Imagine finding out a stranger secretly filmed you and millions have watched it online. That’s what’s happening to women targeted by men using smart glasses for content and profit.

Should Meta be doing far more to protect people’s privacy, or does this tech need to be banned outright?

This week we asked you if by-elections should be triggered when an MP defects after another three Conservative MPs defected to Reform UK.

This is what you had to say.
