But our analysis suggests the Government’s approach so far to improving standards falls short of the comprehensive change needed.

This is what happens when justice serves power instead of people.

We need this here because it looks a lot like our own Supreme Court vs. the people.

😒That's not a good look. Worse, it's a conflict of interest.
Thames Water is in crisis. Why would the Chancellor of the Exchequer appoint someone from a firm who lobbies on their behalf?
Private firms should be nowhere near Thames Water.

Incredibly infuriating to press the button then stand and wait for 30 seconds (or more!) before the lights change. Why? What’s the justification? Why would you leave a pedestrian, exposed to the elements, standing waiting to allow cars to continue on?
How long are you waiting to cross the road? 🚦
Research shows that after 30 seconds pedestrians are more likely to run out of patience and risk crossing the road before the signals change.
