Messages show Palantir lobbied a UK health minister to extend its AI platform into NHS GP records, which its contract rules out
The Guardian· 9 NovThe Guardian reports that Palantir lobbied a health minister to consider extending its AI technology into GP records, although GP data is expressly outside its existing 330 million pound NHS England contract. WhatsApp messages from July 2025 to March 2026, obtained by the campaign group Foxglove, show its UK boss arguing that joining up primary and secondary care data was 'unarguable'. Doctors' groups oppose the move.
- If you are a patient in England, you can ask your GP practice how your data is shared and what your opt-out options are.
- If you handle customer or patient data in your own business, write down which systems hold it and who has agreed to what, before a supplier suggests joining them up.
