"one of the things which most alarms me, because it's my special area of interest – is that the British government has undertaken massive deals with US tech companies. This came out of that state visit. It includes – two weeks ago, I think it was – Britain signing a £240m deal to put Palantir in the middle of our armed forces, our Ministry of Defence. It just seems like total madness to have a Trump ally literally in our defence infrastructure."
