To be clear, Polanski doesn’t have authority to terminate anything, and this is a letter notifying Palantir that they will be cancelled _if the Greens win_.

Quite misleading title in the article.

I'm not a fan of Palantir being involved in the NHS, but this is just political campaigning.

Polanski is head of a political party with, currently, almost no power in the UK. This is symbolic campaigning. Which is fine, but don't be fooled in to thinking it would change anything.

And at the next election -- if the current polling stays consistent -- they are likely to get 15-85 seats, which is not enough for them to gain power. Even then they are unlikely to form a coalition as Labour are not doing well in the polls currently, and the gain in support for the greens is largely coming at Labour's expense.
