COMEDIAN Will Sebag-Montefiore – best known for poking fun at manosphere numbskulls and the political right – will join The Good Law Project’s Duncan McCann, Jeremy Corbyn MP and the Defend Whittington Hospital Coalition outside the hospital on October 1.

The demonstration is against Palantir – the US military tech company that has won major contracts to provide patient data services across the NHS.

The contract to build the Federated Data Platform – expected to cost up to £330million over seven years – is under review due to a range of concerns.

Whittington chiefs are said to be uneasy about implementing the software that many believe is going to be more trouble than it is worth.
