Larry Ellison envisions a surveillance state in which techbros rule. '“Citizens will be on their best behavior, because we’re constantly recording and reporting everything that is going on,” Ellison said in an hour-long Q&A during Oracle’s Financial Analyst Meeting last week.'

This is the guy who donated £257m to Tony Blair's institute and wants to use all our UK data to train Oracle's AI. Digital ID cards are a step.on the way.

"The Nerve has mapped the political landscape to illustrate who’s for digital ID and who’s against it. And what our research shows is a web of influence that radiates out from Tony Blair’s Institute for Global Change. In the ‘for’ camp is a grab bag of people who are mostly associated with Blair. And against it…is everyone else"

‘And the current #Labour government, rather than resisting these trends, risks entrenching them.

Invite #BlackRock into your industrial strategy. Hand over #NHS data architecture to #Oracle.

Populate your boards with corporate lobbyists. Expand surveillance powers and #digitalID infrastructure.

Clive Lewis MP
