Its links to the Far Right (Peter Thiel is clearly an anti-democrat), leading to concerns about the firm being in control of so much UK vital data;
But if it wasn't Palantir, putting the state into hock with a large single provider is in itself ill-advised.

With no open tendering process either. Thiel's agenda doesn't care much for people, which is somewhat at odds with the fundamental ethos of the NHS. -

@ChrisMayLA6 #palantir is an ideological Trojan horse.
Thiel is against democracy, according to himself.
His spiel is that tech-control should replace democracy.

They are more aptly described as an extinction cult. The world they want is one inhabited by digital beings they are the masters of. If businesses have AI and robots, what need is there of people?
They are now clothing themselves in end days religious imagery, but everything about them is at a minimum a display of sheer disregard for people. They fund science denial because public health has a bad habit of finding their deadly business practice
