Trump loves to throw around the slogan, ‘Promises Made, Promises Kept,’ but how accurate is it? Spoiler: It's not.

This is very serious. It seems patients are being evacuated from Southampton hosp inc from its dialysis unit.
Many of us saw this sort of hugely worrying and dangerous problem ahead if we left incompetent greedy water companies in control.
Why didn't the Govt?
#PublicOwnership is the only option.

This is appalling. Another water company that can't fulfil its obligations to deliver clean water to households.
So, will our Govt take Southern Water into public ownership immediately?

Buying cheese for Christmas?
Get it from a Cheese shop not a supermarket…
I’d also urge you to buy (mostly) British & Irish cheeses - a matter of taste, of course, but we’re making phenomenal cheeses in the British Isles at the moment. Supporting British producers & retailers is a good thing.

Great advice from JH. Co-sign.
Best way to deal with toxic people online?
Don’t follow them.
Don’t read their posts.
Don’t think about them.
Don’t talk about them.
Shut them up in the airlock of your total indifference, and let the vacuum of space do the rest….
