  medConfidential Bulletin, 6th July 2018 

  6 July 2018 — MedConfidential

  Firstly, we would like to thank everyone who kindly let us know when they received their letter about the new National Data Opt-Out. This helped us confirm what patients were being told. 

  Clearly NHS Digital has not written to everyone who made a Type-2 objection (see below) – and NHS England, which is responsible for informing everyone else, still refuses to write to people who haven’t opted out about their new choice. Meanwhile, its virtually invisible ‘communications campaign’ stumbles on. Have you heard any of the radio ads or talk radio debates that apparently NHS England has arranged?

  Also, if you’ve not received a letter yet, we’d be very interested to hear when yours shows up, because…

  18 May 2018 — MedConfidential

  NHS data-sharing U-turn is welcome – but more to do to scrap the ‘hostile environment’By Peter Pannier 

  11 May 2018 — OurNHS

  Recent attention to the Windrush scandal has focused attention on the many ways migrants are deterred from accessing healthcare. The government has this week announced it will be suspending “with immediate effect” the controversial memorandum of understanding (MOU) under which NHS Digital shared NHS patients’ details with the Home Office.

  Industrializing Class War By William Bowles 

  2 February 2018 — InvestigatingImperialism

  Have you noticed that it’s no longer PC Dixon of Dock Green who mediates the relationship between the state and its citizens as he goes about his beat in your neighbourhood? Instead, it’s a Kevlar-armoured, video-monitored, taser-equipped, drone-surveilled, spit-masked supplied soldier, straight out of Star Wars, who now staggers along under the weight of an industrialized capitalism, visibly physically disconnected from the citizens they monitor by their bullet-proof uniforms, that more resemble a rack of tools in your local hardware store than the Bobby on the beat.

  Speak up for your Privacy Now! 

  20 June 2017 — OpenMedia

  The votes are in, and a Conservative minority government is now hanging on to power by a narrow thread.

  Unfortunately, the election’s outcome has deeply worrying implications for our digital rights. A few weeks before the election, the Home Office’s covert plans to invade our privacy were publicly revealed thanks to a shocking leak by our friends at Open Rights Group.¹

  These secret plans — an insult in and of themselves to transparent democratic process — will have enormous consequences for Internet users right across the country.
