Burnham to meet Irish PM as UK bids to get exemptions from EU’s ‘Made in Europe’ plan – UK politics live

It will be the first time the PM uses No 10 North to host an overseas visit while the chancellor will be in Dublin meeting with EU finance ministers

Here is the statement Tom Watson issued about his decision to take a job with Palantir.

I’m terrifically excited to be joining the young Palantir team who make the tools that public service workers need to transform how they serve the British people.

Whether that means reducing the time it takes to be diagnosed, treated and discharged from hospital, helping our military personnel keep us safe and secure, or enabling our police to crack crimes and root out corruption, Palantir software can transform the country’s public services.
