The Labour Party's Conference Arrangements Committee (CAC) has rejected an emergency motion to cancel Palantir's £330 million contract to process NHS data, citing concerns over the company's links to the Israeli military. The motion was brought by the Labour-affiliated Socialist Health Association and at least three constituency parties at the party's conference in Liverpool.
The motion accused Palantir of involvement in serious human rights violations, including its role in Israel's military occupation of Palestinian land and genocide in Gaza. Palantir has been awarded over £670 million in contracts with British civil and defence sectors since 2020.
