A properly nationalised, joined-up water and energy system, with the public interest its goal, could construct reservoirs that both serve as water sources and as energy storage. — #Renationalise UK public services — Prosecute corrupt water & energy company execs & regulators
Towns in England at risk of running out of water until 2027. Over one trillion litres of water a year lost to leaks. No new reservoirs since privatisation. Record customer bills. Polluted rivers. No national planning. No national grid. Crisis deepened by privatisation. archive.ph/0XI5H

Decades of austerity, privatisation of essential public services, Brexit, Covid; all mismanaged by 5 appalling Tory PMs in 14 years. Why is any sane person still willing to give another greedy Tory liar, their rich donors, another chance? Just like the wrecking ball to equality, fairness in USA.

If you can just have a read of this thread of facts not stories.
1/23 Sorry, this will be long... There is a lot of shouting about what happened in the Channel yesterday. So I want to go back to basic law. Not immigration policies or political rhetoric. At sea, the starting point is simple: Preservation of life comes first under all maritime conventions.

He commits at least 3 offences right on camera. Criminal damage. Endangering life at sea. Carrying a knife in public. Possession of any offensive weapon. Etc.
The complete and total collapse of state function in the face of far right extremists. It is frankly ludicrous that Daniel Thomas continues to be at large given the series of crimes committed which he has literally filmed.

Possession of an offensive weapon, reckless endangerment, criminal damage ... Let's hope the police take this seriously. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/s...

The Guardian joins the campaign to abolish the state pension triple-lock. Portrays it as a old v young, social security v defence spending issue. Silence on corporate welfare, tax perks of the rich, maldistribution of wealth, low govt spend on state pension, how future retirees will survive.
Neoliberals want to end the triple-lock on state pension They inflict low wages, consign millions to poverty. Govt spending on state pension as % of GDP in G7 countries. Italy 12.8 France 12 Germany 9.8 Japan 8.9 USA 6.6 Canada 4.7 UK 4.7 UK has one of the least generous pensions in the G7.

The law that's coming in on overseas donations is retrospective. It applies from March this year, so donations over the cap received anytime after the policy was announced (but not yet in law) would have to be returned. Reform though imply Delo was already long back in the UK by this point

UK MPs accepted £400,000 of hospitality to concerts, sports, other events. Donors get access, buy influence. Despite £98,599 pay+exps, too many MPs have 2nd jobs, neglect duty to the people, obey paymasters. Parties also for sale. All part of political corruption, and poor state of the country.

Hooray for Brexit sovereignty! We successfully liberated our regulations so ExxonMobil could use the UK as a legal back-door to sabotage European carbon capture rules. Truly a triumph for global climate action and taking back control. 🇬🇧🇪🇺 #FBPE #ClimateCrisis
