And that bills are going to go UP as wholesale prices go DOWN.
You read that right.
What’s changing is the removal of the cap. The rise is a U.K. govt constructed rise.
Change? 😂😂😂😂😂

Reform-led Kent County Council have repainted the ‘School Keep Clear’ markings on both sides of the road outside Halfway Houses Primary School on the Isle of Sheppey. It’s clear that they are taking the safety of children incredibly seriously. The school closed down in October 2016...

Labour’s plan risks weakening protections for all of us. Human rights are universal - politicians may not always find them politically convenient but it shouldn’t fall to any government to say who those rights should and should not apply to. It’s a slippery slope to oblivion youtu.be/bl0Lm7v_T18?...

In a world without the BBC, how will we know what is true and what is truly haplening in the world?
Our only source of information (misinformatio) will be the billionaire-owned media.
The BBC has been gravely damaged by 14 years of the Tories.
But we desperately need it to be functioning properly

Or, translated:
“We didn’t punch down on or vilify trans people sufficiently for the Telegraph’s liking.”
How many years away are we from having a “both sides” factor when discussing gay people, I wonder?

Inexplicable implosion from Scotland in final quarter. Pumas allowed to make easy metres too quickly from line breaks. Not Finn’s best game today.
Why were Tom Jordan & George Horne unused subs? That shows a complete lack of respect from Townsend, very poor man-management!

Israel is advancing a bill to impose the death penalty on Palestinian prisoners. Right-wing leaders want to go even further and use the bill to give Israeli forces the authority to carry out extrajudicial killings.
