THIS WEEK'S STORIES
From a myriad of news and feature articles published throughout the world each week, a selection is made to republish on Connect. From those selected, our local editorial team choose specific themes to share.
Our intention is to make available thought provoking articles on major topics of interest in today's world. Whilst we have no answers, we understand enough to know, we all need to ask searching questions.
We hope you find the selection valuably informative.

BRITISH DON'T LIKE GENOCIDE
UK Palantir head Louise Mosley calls people who don't want his Big Tech company to have NHS data, a "noisy minority." The truth is, as he says, Palantir is embedded in the Gazan genocide. Brits don't like that.
