EDM 2650 Letter to my MP
Subject: Support the EDM 2650 - the UK needs a digital sovereignty strategy now
Dear Charlotte Cane MP,
I urge you to support the EDM 2650, to create an urgently needed UK digital sovereignty strategy.
I’ve been working in the tech sector in the UK for 30 years, and am keenly aware of how fundamentally beholden private and public organisations digital services are to foreign companies. Whether it’s the well-known, like Google or Microsoft, or the less visible Palantir, Oracle or AWS - our entire digital infrastructure is owned and run primarily by US tech companies.

For obvious reasons, I left Twitter. I kept the archive, because it is almost 10 years of stuff what I wrote. Some of which was funny, personal and / or interesting (to me).
Now, even with the archive, I don’t want there to be any links back to the nazi bar. So, if you’re reading this, there’s a good chance you clicked on a link there. It’s okay. I do it too sometimes. I’m not immune to wishing it was better. I’m not immune to hoping to find that friends have signed off and deleted their accounts.
In the meantime, you can probably work out the original link if you really want to follow it - just look at the url for this post.
