Why are they even called "investors" if they've TAKEN OUT more than they've ever PUT IN? It's time to end this disaster. Andy Burnham has a big opportunity now. Ask him to block the Thames Water bailout NOW: vist.ly/5pb97

Covid hit the UK at the worst possible time. Obvs no time would’ve been good, but it hit UK at a point where it had elected a government uniquely unqualified to deal with it.The PM treated his entire campaign & election like it was a game: he was more interested in gaining the office than doing 1/4

Reform UK loves free speech. Absolutely adores it. Unless, of course, that speech involves journalists exposing racism, questionable finances or the behaviour of Reform politicians. Then it's apparently time to call the police. This is going to backfire on them. Spectacularly.

Free Speech Warriors Call the Police on Journalists

After months of damaging investigations, Farage and his cronies have turned on the journalists exposing them. They may soon discover just how spectacularly that can backfire.

Trump set up a whistleblower hotline to catch fraud, and America immediately understood the assignment: flooding it with reports on Trump, his family, and his entire cabinet. Huge shoutout to everyone doing their patriotic duty by reporting the actual criminals! 💅🔥

If the far right say there's no money for benefits, care homes, SEND, housing just suggest recouping £billions from PPE etc fraudsters and #TaxTheRich "Lest we forgot: The right wing made sure there was no protective ring around care homes; while protecting rich friends" via The UK Against Hate

Thames Water's creditors are meeting on Thursday 29th October to decide on yet another bailout for the company at our expense Sign the petition to demand Andy Burnham BLOCK THE BAILOUT NOW: vist.ly/5p6f3 And share this widely. We are running ot time to stop this bailout.

A graphic that includes a quote from Feargal Sharkey that says "“Thames Water is due to run out of money (again) over the next few weeks. A year and half ago, it was given a £3 billion bailout. Now it is asking for another 2.4 billion. We really are being taken for mugs” and further text that says "9 days to stop being taken for a mug. Add your name to say NO"

Watched a Danny Jones podcast, had to switch off when he said was "disappointed" in POTUS because he didn't stick to his promise to drain the swamp. Sure that's true, he didn't, but anyone who EVER thought this lumpen psychopath would make a good Pres is nuts in my book. Anyone else feel like that?

Canada is leaving Starlink and will ban it in Canada “ASAP.” Not “reviewing,” not “studying options,” not “monitoring the situation.” Canada understands the danger of Elon’s partnership with Trump and Putin “deeply,” according to one

Allowing this dead-company-walking to be bailed out again, instead of taking it into Special Administration and then permanent public ownership, would be a disgrace and a betrayal by the Andy Burnham government Enough is enough.

Private water companies are trying to convince you that taking our water into public ownership is too expensive But we can bring water into public hands for LESS than they will siphon out of our bills over the next 5 years Public ownership now!

Graphic that says "Water privatisation is a scam. Public ownership now. £14 billion the cost of bringing water into public ownership, according to Moody's in 2019 VS £22 billion amount banks and shareholders will take out of our water bill in the next 5 years"
