Your water bills are going up, again.
Why? Because private companies think you should pay the price for their negligence and greed.
It’s time to end the privatisation rip-off and bring water back into public ownership, now!

Unlike Labour and Reform, I think Britain’s foreign policy should be decided by Britain, not the United States.

Britain needs its own foreign policy, not America's

We need a government that understands the value of grassroots music venues and the vital role they play in our communities.
If we don’t protect them from private developers, we will lose out on a whole generation of musicians.

The US has declared Cuba an "unusual and extraordinary threat", authorising new sanctions and tightening its illegal blockade.
Trump is trying to starve Cuba into submission — and millions of people will suffer.
This is economic warfare, plain and simple. Hands off Cuba!

If you are concerned about Reform & the Tories wanting to introduce ICE to the UK, you should read Dan’s thread (and give him a follow) to understand what Labour are doing now.
A 77% increase in immigration raids, 83% increase in arrests, coupled with undermining modern slavery protections and a call to remove basic ECHR rights from migrants.
If you think what is happening with ICE in the US can't happen here I have a bridge to sell you. 1/

I am very concerned by the government's mass rollout of facial recognition technology.
This is a grave threat to privacy, and turns the presumption of innocence on its head.
We are hurtling toward a mass surveillance state. It must be opposed!
