King Charles: Stop Profiting At Britain’s Expense!
Energy bills are soaring, and the King is getting rich at our expense. Sign the petition to demand the Crown Estate lower fees on seabeds and make wind farms more affordable to build.

Thames Water has deferred £2.5m bonus, disguised as retention payments, to execs.
First tranche of £2.5m already paid, millions more promised
Bonus for what - fleecing customers, dumping sewage in ruvers, not investing, boosting profits?
Let customers vote on exec pay/bonuses.

I will just point out the Doctors have asked for a maximum of £800m, that's for 71,000 doctors who run all the hospitals.
That's 'too expensive'.
But when the Water Companies asked for £5bn, they were given it.
Broken Britain, money for thieves, no money for you.

2. They will profit from your illness, far more than providing vaccinations.
3. They are happy for you to die, they think they can replace you with AI

Good that UK govt wants to lift 550,000 children out of poverty.
BUT 16m people, including 5.2m children, live in poverty.
24m people live below socially acceptable living standards.
Can't end child poverty without tackling parental poverty. Can't do that without reforming capitalism.

To tackle child poverty the government must deal with parental poverty
Labour's child poverty strategy offers some welcome measures, but it won't address the factors keeping families trapped in poverty

UK Govt plan to reduce child poverty is welcome but that requires reduction in parental poverty.
That can't be done without equitable distribution of income and wealth, stronger trade unions, progressive taxation, decent housing, education, healthcare, jobs and sound economy.
Who will do that?

Profits are the problem.
90% of them are paid to the richest 1% who do nothing to earn them.
While you are paying AND working for them.
They need to go down, and down, and down.
