Despite being asked to attend by the sub-com to face Qs on Palantir's software, not a single representative from nhssyicb sheffieldhospitals, sheffieldchildrens, sheffieldpartnership turned up to listen to the concerns of patients and health workers.

Nonetheless, the councillors showed broad support of the campaign and were united (Labour, Lib Dems, and Greens) in opposition to Palantir being involved in our NHS!
