This is real and well-sourced: NHS staff are indeed resisting Palantir's deployment through workplace refusal and formal union opposition. The British Medical Association voted to oppose the rollout, and fewer than 25% of hospital trusts are actively using the platform despite management mandates. The post accurately captures both the scale of resistance and the creative framing staff use (treating refusal as a 'workplace adjustment'). The quote about people refusing to work on the software reflects documented staff sentiment, though the specific manager quote isn't sourced here—the underlying reality of organized resistance is verified.
