England’s water is appalling — and so is the politics keeping it privatised.

Labour can’t win back trust and beat Reform whilst cosying up to the same profiteers who’ve bled our rivers dry.

My Unfiltered Initial Thoughts On Labour’s Cuts:

The patronising spectacle of people on over £91k per year (plus expenses) providing more cruel hoops for the vulnerable to jump through, was despicable.

Then to paint it all as some kind of moral crusade? Fuck off.

Immigration surged because Johnson couldn’t risk glaring labour shortages once freedom of movement was binned. So, huge numbers were offered/paid for visas to come and fill the gaps. A recipe for exploitation. A grim scandal yet to surface. Failure upon failure. Brexit at its rotten epicentre.

Really quite extraordinary to see demands for Starmer's resignation, in response to his being open about terrible mistakes that happened between 2017-2024, from the very politicians who were in charge during that time - sometimes at the depts that messed up. ~AA

UK retailers warn of 4.2% food price rise later this year.

Any chance of cutting profit margins, exec pay, dividends, share buybacks, thought not.

Visit any food bank and you will find supermarket workers queuing. Despite huge profits work doesn't pay enough.

So @lbc.co.uk have shuffled Nige Fartrage off the airwaves before 9:45am so that he doesn't have to face the ordeal of having his arse handed to him in a newspaper by @mrjamesob.bsky.social' pre-show monologue.

Who insisted on that? I bet it was "Man of the [Right] People" Nige Fartrage!
