Brexiters said that leaving the EU would “take back control”, but 72 per cent of British voters said we now have less control over our affairs than before, and only 15 per cent believe the slogan has lived up to its promise.

21% of NHS staff are immigrants, but only 16% of the UK population was born overseas.
So are you more likely to be treated by an immigrant - or stand behind them in the NHS queue?
Here’s what people told us.

A year of reasons why Ofwat must say NO to 15 years of illegal sewage.
SEPTEMBER: Despite huge under-investment, Thames Water asks Ofwat if they can do fewer infrastructure projects. Whose interests do they serve??
Tell Ofwat to reject Thames Water's new deal.

Good! An early insight of human centered design is that it was possible to reduce airplane crashes by introducing tactile switches and toggle that did not create confusion or require people to take their eyes away from their core tasks donmoynihan.substack.com/p/the-origin...

Freedom of Movement didn’t mean “open borders”.
It meant equal treatment:
• Work without permits
• Rent or buy homes
• Access healthcare
• Move for love, family, or opportunity
All of that was automatic for British citizens.

Long time Cardiacs fan since being raptured to heaven by a nineties festival performance. Albeit a noisy, choral, pantomic, chaotic, disturbing heaven.
Amazed to find out they've got a new album out, LSD, and it's classic Cardiacs, fantastic:

The contaminated waste piled high in a field near Kidlington is now washing into River Cherwell. In the last 48 hours, the water level has risen 4+ feet and is lapping against the illegal dump.
We stand on the edge of an environmental disaster. We need urgent action from the Environment Agency.

Here's how the real two-tier Britain works:
1. Whatever Nigel Farage says, however stupid, is looped and discussed by the media, while left-wing voices are treated as noises off.
2. Tiny far-right protests get massive airtime, while 10s of 000s gathering for Palestine or green causes are ignored.🧵
