When Andy Burnham served as the Manchester regional mayor, he did so in the only region of England that refused Palantir access to its data. Now, as British prime minister, Palantir could be his first major test in office.
The UK Government Faces a Reckoning Over Palantir

China is becoming a stronger competitor in key EU export sectors like machinery and transport, while relying less on European industrial imports. The uneven impact across countries and sectors should inform policy responses.

Canada plans to build a sovereign Internet backbone and end its dependence on U.S.-based corporations.
This is an essential infrastructure project for Canada. It’s as vital today as founding the CBC was in the 1930s and building the transcontinental railroad was in the 1880s.
