"“Watch out for the Disc, Mosley warned the dissent-crushing distributed idea suppression complex consisting of armies of fact checkers and experts, activists, lawyers, academics and journalists.”"
"“Calls are growing for Keir Starmer's government to cut its ties with the company that was co-founded by the Trump-backing tech billionaire Peter Thiel. It means Mosley has become a lightning rod for public fear of a US tech takeover of the British state. It has fallen to him to fight back.”"
"“Palantir, the world's most controversial tech company, is no typical contractor. In recent years it has gained firm footholds across Britain's public sector while appalling critics with its leadership's rightwing rhetoric and its work for the US and Israeli militaries and Donald Trump's ICE immigration crackdown.”"
"“Mosley's Cromwell speech, which was delivered in 2025, came at a rally organised by the Alliance for Responsible Citizenship, a convening organisation of the west-must-win libertarian Christian right. It was also addressed by Jordan Peterson, Thiel and Nigel Farage.”"
Louis Mosley, UK and Europe boss of Palantir, delivered a speech claiming a revolution is brewing in the UK and Europe, drawing parallels to Oliver Cromwell and warning about globalism’s decline. The speech included admiration for figures such as Joe Rogan and Elon Musk. Palantir has major public-sector contracts involving the NHS, the Ministry of Defence, and police, while critics cite rightwing rhetoric from leadership and work for US and Israeli militaries and Donald Trump’s ICE immigration crackdown. Calls are increasing for the Starmer government to end ties with Palantir, co-founded by Peter Thiel. Mosley has become a focal point for fears of a US tech takeover of the British state, defending the company frequently on social media, podcasts, and BBC appearances. His 2025 Cromwell-themed rally speech warned of a “Disc” suppression complex of fact checkers, experts, activists, lawyers, academics, and journalists.
