Burnham Faces Early Pressure to Cut NHS Contract With Palantir

As Andy Burnham begins his first parliamentary session as UK prime minister, Westminster sources say he faces mounting pressure to terminate Palantir's £330m contract managing data on the NHS Federated Data Platform. Palantir holds roughly £670m in UK public sector contracts spanning health, defence and policing, and campaigners are urging Burnham to invoke a break clause that would end the NHS deal in 2027.
