Did you watch Dirty Business? I can't believe how much water companies have gotten away with. They're putting profit before public health - it’s a scandal and the Government MUST take action! Sick of sewage? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/en...
Why are they members in the first place? What is its purpose? Who funds it and what do the get in return?
When Rachel, a small business owner received an unexpected screen on her HMRC Corporation Tax return, she unknowingly stumbled upon evidence of the largest peacetime transfer of British sovereignty to foreign corporations in modern history. open.substack.com/pub/european...
The UK taxpayer gets the bill for all the extra police and security arrangements and we didn’t even elect the Orange fucker
People calling for peace, who wish no harm on anyone, risk arrest under the Terrorism Act, while the state terrorists perpetrating genocide are being protected from our free speech.

" Omer Bartov's long and detailed op-ed in the New York Times today making it clear why “genocide” is the correct word to describe what Israel is doing in Gaza — with all the many legal, moral, ethical, and commemorative implications that flow from that."

Dear @UKLabour,
No matter what good you do domestically
For so many of us, it won’t matter one tiny bit
You will forever be the party complicit in genocide.
There is only one way to read Trump’s post today about Epstein - basically a confession.
He’s guilty, he knows he’s guilty, his cult isn’t culting on this, and he’s a cornered rat with no way out other than to plead with people not to care about child sex trafficking.
Any politician who has never flown on the world’s most famous pedophile’s jet should call for a bipartisan committee to investigate — and then release — the Epstein files.
What a way to reach across the aisle.
1. Yesterday, 86 people were arrested in the UK under the Terrorism Act 2000 for holding signs saying "I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action."
They are the opposite of terrorists. They were protesting *against* terrorism. 🧵
Just can’t wait to sneer can you? Corbyn was the last politician to offer hope and he was brought down by mendacious tools of the establishment. Pick a side Ian

Netanyahu has spent the better part of two decades trying to strong arm the United States into an unprovoked war against Iran and finally found a president stupid enough to do it for him. Unbelievable.
The idea that we can "easily" overthrow the regime in Iran is a fantasy of people that have never served. Afghanistan is back in the hands of the Taliban after 20 years of slaughter. Iraq still isn't peaceful. Libya is a war zone that's been in civil war since we dropped bombs. History is screaming!
This is a really hard concept for Westerners to grasp, but here goes;
Disliking someones government is not a valid excuse to blow up their hospitals, starve their people, bomb their wedding parties and burn their kids alive
The most striking thing about this speech is how rarely, in a country that is being tanked by wealth inequality, we hear politicians making it.
Hypocrisy. Leave it to Leavitt.
35 years of England water privatisation.
Industry controlled by companies with 1,135 criminal convictions.
1trn litres water a year lost in leaks.
Sewage dumped in rivers for 3.62m hrs a year.
£85bn dividends, £70bn+ debt, people fleeced
Last decade, £112m exec bonuses .
Must end privatisation.
Civics 101: presidents are not kings…
They might come unstuck on this one. Fromage thinks that he can simply transpose MAGA onto the UK but some of it isn’t a good fit. The racism obviously works but the stuff that is based in fanatical Godbothering doesn’t really resonate here
