After being rejected 4 times, Thames Water's creditors are now submitting a 5th proposal to keep the failing utility in private hands. This time, they're promising to increase public control. 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗺𝗶𝘀𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗮𝗻 𝗶𝗹𝗹𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻. 1/2

Write to your MP: reject the creditors' last-ditch attempt to keep Thames Water privatised

Je mehr ich das Wahlprogramm der AfD Sachsen-Anhalt lese, frage ich mich: Wie kann diese Partei denn nicht schon längst verboten worden sein ... ?! Da muss man ja nicht mal was interpretieren oder ein Rechtsexperte sein, da stehen glasklar verfassungswidrige, demokratiefeindliche Forderungen.

If Andy Burnham’s government wants courts to prosecute individuals under the Terrorism Act for holding pieces of paper then we are going to make it as inconvenient and expensive as possible Saving Lives Is Not Terrorism. End the use of terrorism law against people of conscience.

DAWN RAIDS UK citizens, mostly pensioners, are being shockingly awoken at dawn in counter-terrorism raids, with mobile phones seized. Why? Because they posted videos online stating their opposition to Israel’s genocide and support for Palestine Action smashing the weapons used.

11/ Sadly, Ukraine still needs Washington, for Intel and weapons via PURL. So Zelenskyy has to play the game. But Ukraine's president has more cards now. I would advise he tells the media he expects Trump to honour Graham's memory with a sanctions bill in full, immediately.

10/ So the clueless twosome will return from Russia pretending they have a basis for something, mega sanctions will not be enacted and the whole charade continues as Ukrainians die. The House has ordered $400m aid for Ukraine, yet Trump's regime is delaying release until 2029.

9/ Dumb & Dumber (Vitkov + Kushy nepo kid) will AGAIN go to Russia with the plan, while disrespectfully having NEVER been to Kyiv. The Estate/Realty agent is a disgrace, completely out of his depth. Countless mistakes, played like a fiddle and an embarrassment to the U.S.

8/ At least Washington has a new idea - a ban on the aerial strikes in this war would save lives. But why has it been suggested now, just as Ukraine starts hurting Russia across the terrorist country? We need full details of the proposal but it's impossible to police drone use.

7/ Will this latest 'initiative' bring peace closer? It seems unlikely, especially after Putin set his budget for continuing war for the next 3 years & already recruiting people to manage conscription in Russia in the autumn But Putin will do his usual 'delay dance' with Trump.

2/ Senator Graham died 17 days ago, and although an autopsy found natural causes for the 71 year old's death, toxicology reports have not been released. They don't have to be made public, but I think this is of international importance, considering his criticism of Russia.

Oh FFS! Instead of worrying about your summer holidays, you should be worrying about a 2.8°C to 3°C hotter southern Europe in 2050 and where all those millions of displaced people are going to be living? And what a 4°C Europe is going to do to your children? 🤷‍♂️

How will wildfires in Europe affect your summer holiday?

Travel expert Simon Calder shares his advice for those travelling to France and Spain this summer as devastating wildfires ravage western Europe.

Immer wieder wird kritisiert, dass es keinen aufgeklärten "europäischen" Islam gebe. Nun, vielleicht gibt es ihn, und er wird nur totgeschwiegen? Den vernünftigen Stimmen muss man halt auch Gehör verschaffen. Hier die Pressemeldung der Berliner Imame: itidal.de/berliner-ima...

We could remove Waltz today. We could remove Trump today. It's impeachment. Congress could do that right now. Why don't they? Why does the Senate never convict and remove? Why the focus on a long, drawn out trial and requiring mountains of evidence? We have eyes! It's in the news. Enough!

Impeach. Convict. Remove.
