Our privatised water system is broken, and the next Water Bill could lock in more of the same.

If MPs don’t hear from us, water companies get their way again.

The ECHR was Britain’s response to WW2 fascist regimes. With authoritarianism on the rise again, we’d be mad to give up the protections it provides. Tell your MP we won’t let that happen! actionstorm.org/petitions/pr...

The government wants to bring back private finance in our NHS. 🤬

This would harm patients by siphoning off hundreds of millions of pounds in profits from our NHS. 🤑

Rachel Reeves and Wes Streeting, you can still drop these disastrous and unpopular plans. Share if you agree.

❗KKR, the predatory US private equity firm lined up to rescue Thames Water, has pulled out. Thames Water is back in crisis.

It's time for Steve Reed to cut the 💩and bring it into public hands.

Israel murdered Anas al-Sharif, and his fellow Palestinian journalists, to silence witnesses to its genocide.

Gaza's journalists - the bravest journalists who ever lived - never stopped speaking out.

The least we can do is to speak louder than ever before.

Our privatised water system is broken - and water lobbyists have worked hard to shut down alternatives.In July the People’s Commission is launching a people-first vision for our water in Parliament.Your MP needs to hear about it: actionnetwork.org/letters/ask-...
Ask your MP to show their support for a people-first future for our water!
We can make our water work for people - not shareholders - but water lobbyists are working hard to shut this solution down. Will you make sure your MP hears about it?

Caught lobbying for cash or bullying in Parliament? You can still return to the House of Lords - for life.
No real consequences. No accountability.

Ban rule-breaking peers from the House of Lords.
Lords found guilty of serious misconduct – like bullying or lobbying for cash – still get to make our laws. I just signed a petition to kick rule-breaking peers out of the Lords for good. Want to add...

Tony Benn would have been 100 years old today.

It's been 11 years since he died, but his legacy lives on in our collective struggles for justice, equality and peace.

Happy birthday Tony! 🌹
