1100 Water company convictions. 81 criminal investigations outstanding. The government claims are unbelievable. Firstly, claiming the water companies are spending £104bn reducing river sewage by 50%. Second, Water Act 2025 will jail bosses - all tosh gov.uk/government/news/recor…

"A match official who was set to be the first Somalian to referee at the World Cup finals has been dropped after he was denied entry to the US.." Why isn't FIFA demanding this decision be reversed? That's a rhetorical question. We all know why.

Brexit ‘sabotage’ has cost Britain up to £30bn every year. Brexit was secured by lies. None of the promised economic benefits delivered. Gave us higher business costs. Farage still peddling the same lies. UK's future is with Europe. Must rejoin the EU. independent.co.uk/news/uk/po…

"United Utilities launches major £4.8m investment in Troutbeck." That headline should of course read "Water company spends £4.8 million of bill payers money on complying with the law". And they want a round of applause of that @ImogenGBarber thewestmorlandgazette.co.uk/…

"Thames Water should be nationalised, says Andy Burnham." And he's right. Thames Water should have been renationalised years ago. Bravo @AndyBurnhamGM 👏👏👏👏 theguardian.com/politics/202…

THEY ARE BASTARDS! We just got an email sent to MSE. The spelling was awful, and it was quite tough to understand. Lower down, the writer later explained she was 78 and her disability had stopped her being able to spell. So perhaps it is a stroke, or something similar. I've tidied it and summarised below, changing some identifying details. In a nutshell, it was this... "I invested, Martin, with Quotum when you first announced it on TV. What an opportunity for me to buy my own flat. My manager there passed me through to a nice man who asked me for £350 more. He showed me it was growing. I did what he told me to do." She then goes on to explain how she really wanted her flat and she gave more and more money. And she has nothing left to help with her disability. I'm honestly in tears typing this. These types of scam ads have now been going on for a decade. I have spent my career trying to help people with their finances. It feels visceral to get this, and to feel that this reputation has been perverted by criminals to steal from someone who is clearly so vulnerable leaves me feeling nauseous. So many people, both vulnerable and not, lose money and see their lives and wellbeing destroyed. It's now seven years since I sued Facebook. And yet still nothing is being done. Big tech makes £3bn a year from these scammers. We have a law in place to make them responsible for these ads they're paid to publish, yet it isn't implemented. How many more of these do I have to receive - and far worse, how many more people have to go through this? This is relentless. It is wrong. Government has to take action! I wrote to the PM just two weeks ago on this very issue. I've not heard back yet. (We are, of course, going to try and point her in the right direction to get help, but that will be stressful for her too)

Robert Gros made £27m selling useless gowns via the VIP PPE Lane, of course he never paid back a penny, he bought 2 mansions instead. RT and see if we can make him as famous as Michelle Mone.

Let’s not let Farage distract us from the fact that he received a £5 million gift from a foreign billionaire and failed to disclose it, or that his ex colleague claimed that the same billionaire paid him and Boris Johnson £1m each to rig the 2019 election.

Let's talk about the NHS. reform want to make access to medical treatment insurance based. Let me be very clear here. IF YOU WANT TO ABOLISH THE NHS? YOU'RE A FUCKING IDIOT. Yesterday, I had an ECG. That afternoon, I received a call saying a doctor wanted an urgent appointment with me. Fast forward to today: My bus failed to arrive. I called to explain my situation. 20 mins later I got a call from the doctor. We decided on a course of medication and a referral to specialists in the LGI. The cost of ECG. Advice from doctors. The referral to LGI for further investigation? ZERO This message needs to get out because if these fucking idiots ever get anywhere near power? The very people that were thick enough to vote for them will spearhead the most vulnerable that will suffer

Think this one through. Beautiful olive trees that grow and mature and serve as the livelihoods of families. People who think they are righteous and devoted to an all-seeing god, burn them down. And it happens again and again and again.
HORRIFIC: Israeli settlers attacked the village of Madma in the West Bank, setting olive groves on fire and burning hundreds of olive trees. Today saw an unprecedented wave of attacks, with settlers setting at least 9 fields and olive groves on fire across the West Bank.

South West Water fined £1.853m for supplying contaminated drinking water. SWW is a serial offender, loses 107m litres of water daily to leaky pipes, dumped sewage in rivers for 407,006 hours. Still trades. No exec fined, charged. People fleeced. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c62x…

Zia Yusuf styles himself as "Shadow Home Secretary". Farage makes an "emergency address to the nation", as if everyone cares. Add Tice and Jenrick, and the sheer vanity, pomposity and delusion amongst Reform's leaders is off the scale.
