The Government talked a good game on sewage but their targets have failed to wash with the public.
We must give the new regulator the powers it needs to hold these water companies accountable for the damage they are doing.

Yesterday saw the biggest cuts to carer's allowance for decades. Half a billion pounds will be taken away from those who care.
It is a double whammy to the most vulnerable, hitting disabled people who cannot work while slashing support for the loved ones who care for them.

This is Musk's new pinned tweet.
- It's Latin meaning "no one provokes me and gets away with it."
- He attributes it to Sulla, the Roman general who marched on Rome, named himself dictator and launched a notorious reign of terror, executing much of the city's elite.
- It's never linked to Sulla.

Yeah, I cannot stress enough - anyone coming in unironically declaring that Sulla is cool is either an idiot who doesn't know very much about Sulla, a narcissistic monster who should be yeeted out of polite society, or both.
Musk has mentioned his admiration for Sulla before, and it's one of those things that sounds learned, because not everyone knows who Sulla is, but to folks familiar with him, Sulla is - at best - a brute whose sincere reforms were all undone with a decade of his dictatorship.

This is a very dead horse, but I do hope that if democracy survives, my progressive friends will take to heart the lesson that, yes, concentrating more power in the state can get you what you want when you're in control—but it also means bad people can use it for bad things when they're in control.
