Tory legacy.
Thousands of flood defences protecting homes or businesses in England are below the required condition.
Years of austerity, cuts to council funding, deregulation, indulging builders to build in flood plains, lack of investment by water companies.
Country deserves better.

This is how our government has been corrupted:
1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat
We must get big money out of politics.
It is the root of our dysfunction.

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

Tyson is closing a Nebraska plant that employs 3,200 workers in order to “right-size” its business.
The meatpacking giant paid its CEO $22.7M last year, 525x its median employee's pay.
It also spent $196M in stock buybacks to reward shareholders.
Textbook corporate greed.

The BBC needs a board.
But it should not define editorial matters.
Select a citizen's assembly of 299 randomly selected people, let them take expert evidence, and make choices driven by the public.
Like a jury would.
It works for trials. Why not for sensitive areas like media impartiality?
