London's 10-minute display over the Thames aired on the BBC at midnight, and began with a poem which addressed the pandemic, that said: 'In the year of 2020 a new virus came our way; We knew what must be done and so to help we hid away.' Light projections lit up the sky over the O2 Arena, including the NHS logo in a heart accompanied by a child's voice saying: 'Thank you NHS heroes'. The show also recognised Captain Sir Tom Moore, who raised £33m for the NHS by walking laps of his garden and the Black Lives Matter movement. One 2020 phenomena - working from home - was represented with a mute logo backed by a voiceover saying 'You're on mute'.

Addendum presumably, "Turned it off for first time ever" describes the response the tweeter had to seeing the television broadcast of the London NYE 2020-21 NYE fireworks celebrations i.e. that they 'turned their television off' upon seeing the broadcast. Additionally, mention of "first time ever" infers that they habitually watch the celebrations on television (and not in-person) - either because they live in London but prefer to watch it on TV or that they don't live in London and it's feasible for them to commute in for the event.

But on 22 December, Good Law Project claimed it received leaked emails showing that a PR company called Topham Guerin was planning to discredit them, on behalf of Palantir, which wants that NHS data. Good Law Project believes social media influencers have been asked by Topham Guerin what their 'fee expectation' would be for sending two tweets criticising Good Law Project, while taking care not to mention Topham Guerin or link to Palantir. But if I was Topham Geurin, and I wanted to make Jolyon Maugham mad, I would try to get him to believe Palantir was paying for social media influencers to attack him. Is this deep-vein psyops stuff, or me overthinking everything? Topham Guerin's speciality is 'shitty memes'.

#NewspaperUKBrdshtTheGuardianDanMilmo "Palantir, which draws its name from the powerful crystal balls deployed in JRR Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, is the favourite to win a £360m contract for the NHS's Federated Data Platform (FDP). Covering everything from individual patients' data to vaccination programmes, waiting lists and medical trials, the FDP will aggregate data from multiple sources and different formats on to a single platform. ... The ambitious scope of the platform has alarmed campaign groups, who fear for patient confidentiality, privacy and data security, but the identity of the frontrunner has also caused concern. US-based Palantir was co-founded by Peter Thiel, one of Silicon Valley's few high-profile Donald Trump supporters. The $15.6bn (£12.7bn) company has been criticised for its work with the US immigration agency, as well as its intelligence service and defence contracts. It already works closely with NHS England by providing software that processes data for a variety of purposes including take-up of Covid-19 vaccines and managing the post-pandemic bounce back in elective care (surgery or treatment booked in advance). But the prospect of it setting up an overarching data platform for NHS England has alarmed Foxglove, a UK legal campaign group that focuses on accountability in the technology industry. Foxglove's concerns, and those of similar organisations, centre on two aspects: the safety of patient data, and the nature of the company that will set up the data framework and seek to exploit it. ... The head of Palantir's London office is Louis Mosley, grandson of Oswald Mosley and nephew of the late former president of Formula One's governing body, Max Mosley, who became a privacy campaigner later in life. Speaking to the Sunday Times in 2020, Louis Mosley said Palantir's origins were as a defender of personal privacy. 'Palantir was actually started to guard against government overreach into personal privacy. Much of the software we've built is to prove those kinds of protections.'" https://www.theguardian.com/society/2022/jun/21/palantir-concerns-over-data-firm-poised-to-be-operating-system-of-nhs #IRLAuthorJRRTolkien #1954_TheLordOfTheRings #BrandTechNHSFederatedDataPlatformNHSFDP [Wikipedia] #LiteralHealthcare #ToponymAmericaNorthUSCaliforniaNorthernSiliconValley #PhenomnPrivacyConfidentiality #ConditionVirusCOVID19 #AdvocacyUKFoxgloveLegal https://www.foxglove.org.uk/who-we-are/ [pdf] #JournalBritishMedicalJournalBMJ 'A controversial new federated data platform for the NHS in England', BMJ 2023; 383 (Published 29 November 2023).

While initially coined in response to Reagan government proposals to curtail funding of non-profits, it has subsequently been more loosely used to describe a range of other administrative measures aimed at silencing advocacy groups."

Supplementary #IRLComedianStewartLee "Good Law Project recently announced it is launching legal action regarding NHS England's use of patient data. But on 22 December, Good Law Project claimed it received leaked emails showing that a PR company called Topham Guerin was planning to discredit them, on behalf of Palantir, which wants that NHS data. Good Law Project believes social media influencers have been asked by Topham Guerin what their 'fee expectation' would be for sending two tweets criticising Good Law Project, while taking care not to mention Topham Guerin or link to Palantir. But if I was Topham Geurin, and I wanted to make Jolyon Maugham mad, I would try to get him to believe Palantir was paying for social media influencers to attack him. Is this deep-vein psyops stuff, or me overthinking everything? Topham Guerin's speciality is 'shitty memes'. 'Sometimes shitty memes are effective,' declared co-founder Sean Topham of content so deliberately unsophisticated it appears, in contrast to the slick memes of 'the elite', trustworthy. Those experts! With their lighting!! And their fonts!!!" https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/dec/31/topple-tory-dark-lords-palantir-nhs-data-good-law-project-topham-guerin #IRLEntrepreneurPeterThiel #IRLEntrepreneurNathanGettings #BrandPalantirTechnologiesStephenCohen [Wikipedia] #BrandPalantirTechnologiesAlexanderKarp #BrandTophamGuerinTGSeanTopham & #BrandTophamGuerinTGBenGuerin #AdvocacyUKGoodLawProjectJolyonMaugham #MetaphorWarfarePsychologicalOperationsPSYOP #PhenomnCommunicationsMarketingInfluencer #OrgUKNtlHealthServiceNHS And https://goodlawproject.org/pr-firm-topham-guerin-tories-and-palantir-offers-to-pay-influencers-attacks-twitter-x/
#NewspaperUKBrdshtTheGuardianDanMilmo "Palantir, which draws its name from the powerful crystal balls deployed in JRR Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, is the favourite to win a £360m contract for the NHS's Federated Data Platform (FDP). Covering everything from individual patients' data to vaccination programmes, waiting lists and medical trials, the FDP will aggregate data from multiple sources and different formats on to a single platform. ... The ambitious scope of the platform has alarmed campaign groups, who fear for patient confidentiality, privacy and data security, but the identity of the frontrunner has also caused concern. US-based Palantir was co-founded by Peter Thiel, one of Silicon Valley's few high-profile Donald Trump supporters. The $15.6bn (£12.7bn) company has been criticised for its work with the US immigration agency, as well as its intelligence service and defence contracts. It already works closely with NHS England by providing software that processes data for a variety of purposes including take-up of Covid-19 vaccines and managing the post-pandemic bounce back in elective care (surgery or treatment booked in advance). But the prospect of it setting up an overarching data platform for NHS England has alarmed Foxglove, a UK legal campaign group that focuses on accountability in the technology industry. Foxglove's concerns, and those of similar organisations, centre on two aspects: the safety of patient data, and the nature of the company that will set up the data framework and seek to exploit it. ... The head of Palantir's London office is Louis Mosley, grandson of Oswald Mosley and nephew of the late former president of Formula One's governing body, Max Mosley, who became a privacy campaigner later in life. Speaking to the Sunday Times in 2020, Louis Mosley said Palantir's origins were as a defender of personal privacy. 'Palantir was actually started to guard against government overreach into personal privacy. Much of the software we've built is to prove those kinds of protections.'" https://www.theguardian.com/society/2022/jun/21/palantir-concerns-over-data-firm-poised-to-be-operating-system-of-nhs #IRLAuthorJRRTolkien #1954_TheLordOfTheRings #BrandTechNHSFederatedDataPlatformNHSFDP [Wikipedia] #LiteralHealthcare #ToponymAmericaNorthUSCaliforniaNorthernSiliconValley #PhenomnPrivacyConfidentiality #ConditionVirusCOVID19 #AdvocacyUKFoxgloveLegal https://www.foxglove.org.uk/who-we-are/ [pdf] #JournalBritishMedicalJournalBMJ 'A controversial new federated data platform for the NHS in England', BMJ 2023; 383 (Published 29 November 2023).
