Does anybody believe that Trump will respect the 2 term limit?

Increasing your Water Bills 44% ABOVE inflation in the next 5 years isn't enough for the Water Companies, they have appealed to Ofwat to let them increase them up to 83% ABOVE inflation. Like if they can get stuffed. RT if we should nationalise the lot.

This doesn't sound good...

Cutting spending is not necessarily the same as saving money.

What's the point of eternal economic growth, if only the wealthiest few % actually benefit?

I check back on "X" occasionally...😶

Regarding yesterday's vote on the Children's Wellbeing and Schooling Act: If the majority of MPs had actually voted for the Tories' cynical amendment, what would have been the outcome?

So, it looks like Andrew Tate is launching a UK political party - BRUV 😶 I want to believe it is just a joke, but I actually think he is serious. The "Charter" is totally unhinged, and features classic AI images such as these Literacy and Entreprenulsoip, anyone? Refeemendum by phone? 🤪

"Questioning the science" does not make you a scientist, and it does not validate your shitty opinion, which is born from ignorance, prejudice and wishful thinking.

I am right in thinking everyone wants to Rejoin the EU aren't I? Like if you do RP if you really do

Genius 😂

Lol

Meanwhile, over on X, there is quality journalism like this..

Now we are all over here, there are mostly just the racists and idiots left on "X". They do vote, though. I worry that the bullshit they are fed will no longer be challenged (not that it made much difference)

It's clear that Donald Trump seeks to shift the U.S. toward fascism, and in fact is doing so in real-time in front of our eyes. Earlier this week, Jay Kuo analyzed Trump's proposed fascist policies through the lens of Professor Ruth Ben-Ghiat's expert warnings of where we are headed.

Taking a quick peek back on "X". How long will it be before *every* post is from Musk?

For all the sh*t-stirrers having a go at the government, they are quietly getting on with doing grown-up things.

Parliament today passed the Government Bill to bring the British railways back in to public ownership This is a fantastic move to bring a once thriving network back in to public ownership after years of decreasing standards under private ownership Now... Do water.... 👍

One of many problems with X is that accounts like this are allowed to remain - presumably because of free speech". This one is a rabidly antisemitic holocaust-denyer posting around 1,000 times a month. It has 150K followers. WTF?

"If it wasn’t plain before, recent years have brought home that Britain is an inescapably European country." Terrific column by Janan Ganesh on a disastrous decade for UK foreign policy:

Utilities next?

Taking the rich, and taxing big corps may be OK for a little while, but it's not going to address the longer-term structural inequality in our society. They just raise prices/cut labour costs/move money offshore We need to challenge the expectation that some can be super-rich. Nobody needs it.
