The tip of the iceberg, just a drop in the ocean, this is a nationwide problem. Next, what about the river Teme in Herefordshire and Worcestershire?

@whisperingbob.bsky.social hi Bob thanks for the heads up about @RobertPlant and saving grace bringing an album out 😍 I did have my suspicions after a few pics on Instagram, I'm so happy because they are so good ☺️

He’s back . And he’s doing exactly what he said he would . Executive orders to expand drilling in the Alaskan wilderness , the guise of a ‘National Energy Emergency’ to slash red tape and regulation for fossil fuel companies , and the withdrawal from the Paris Climate Agreement .

Dear BlueSkyers. Sadly I'm getting many reports of scammers pretending to be me here, incl messaging people with 'investments' . Pls share/help me spread word that, as you know, THIS IS MY ONLY BLUE SKY account (proved as my handle is an official MoneySavingExpert one). All others are scams

I mean, that's outstanding.

In other news, Nigel Farage didn't bother to turn up to the debate on grooming gangs in the House of Commons just now

While we’re banning books… Finland is teaching children in school how to recognize fake news and propaganda as part of critical thinking and civic responsibility. Some of this will seem very familiar. Be. Like. Finland.

ANOTHER LABOUR BLUNDER? As many of our so-called regulators fail us, Starmer seems to want even less regulation In 2023 OFWAT fined water companies how much money for slinging more and more sh*ye into our rivers and seas? £2 That's TWO POUNDS in total news.sky.com/story/starme...

Nadhim Zahawi’s lawyer has just been found guilty of misconduct by the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal for his attempt to silence me in an email which he said I couldn’t publish or refer to.p

2016: Michael Gove, "We can have green Brexit" 2024: ‘Brexit problem’: UK tap water safety at risk after testing labs shut down

Kemi Badenoch's condemnation of Keir Starmer for appointing a politician with a previous criminal conviction, would have been more credible if she hadn't just dismissed the criticism of her own predecessor, for receiving a conviction while in office, as being "overblown"

"The country needs conviction politicians, not politicians with convictions," says Kemi Badenoch, who has previously admitted to hacking and vandalising a Labour MP's website, which was an offence carrying a sentence of up to five years in prison #pmqs

“The Cabinet Office has prevented disclosure of details relating to Sunak’s investments, so Good Law Project decided to raise the matter with the ICO, the watchdog responsible for monitoring compliance with transparency rules.” bylinetimes.com/2024/12/03/r...

Rishi Sunak, who promised a new era of “accountability” and insisted that “transparency is really important for the healthy functioning of democracy,” has now placed his ongoing financial interests behind an opaque arrangement designed to hide them from public view bylinetimes.com/2024/12/03/r...

I talk about this endlessly in my book....how our current electoral system is NOT fit for purpose @petergeoghegan.bsky.social explains more re donations Jeez Labour...tighten up these horrors....

This is huge. The EFJ represents over 295,000 journalists in 44 countries 👇 www.thelondoneconomic.com/news/media/e...

So Nigel Farage, who has repeatedly accused migrants of making women in the UK unsafe, is now refusing to act against a fellow Reform MP who was jailed for beating up his own girlfriend and is now calling for a 'debate' on restricting women's reproductive rights bylinetimes.com/2024/11/29/n...

@carolvorderman.bsky.social carol how about setting up a petition to get Louise her job back, she was so good at it, it would be a real loss to everyone who uses public transport

I loathe a political culture that removes a passionate and effective minister over a decade-old minor offence that has zero bearing on her ability to do the job. A mixture of cowardice, malice and triviality.

This is real folks

Ed Miliband better hope he didn't forget to pay any library fines 15 years ago

Musk tweeting ‘Good’ about Dame ‘not a clue’ Jenkyns Good for what? Good for whom? And I thought Brexiteers hated unelected foreign bureaucrats meddling in our affairs.

An inspirational tale for aspiring journalists. Remember, if you're a sibling of the former Prime Minister, and close personal friends with the current editor of your favourite magazine, and his ex-wife, you too can achieve your childhood dream of becoming its columnist

Today, November 25th 2024 is the day we officially learned that justice in America, in fact, does NOT matter. #sad

Morning BlueSkyers If any of you enjoy The Trawl @thetrawl.bsky.social please can you repost this request to @bsky.app for a bookmark tab Would hugely help not having to look at the hellhole that is X 🙏🏻

Peter Mandelson’s lobbying firm Global Counsel is under investigation by the lobbying regulator What is it about certain politicians and their seeming inability to actually do things for the greater good? Please read @petergeoghegan.bsky.social thread below 👇 It’s important 💪🏼

lost track of the number of journalists writing that farmers will get hit with IHT above a £1m threshold *for their entire estate* ignoring the reality that it’s £1m of land per person on top of existing IHT threshold of up to £1m (£3m max) feels like a major comms failure by government as well

Almost impossible to imagine a similar article being written about a male (read: any other in history) Chancellor. One argument in this article includes a man saying her master’s course wasn’t very hard. And that because she ‘only’ got a 2.1 at Oxford, she shouldn’t have got in.

Scratching the surface of Farage and his real political, er, leaning @adambienkov.bsky.social reports ⏬

An amazing evening with my son Miles and our pal Steve Massey at the massive @cruk-ci.bsky.social Bobby Moore Fund fundraiser in London tonight…

Conservative MP Alex Burghart, whose leader stood on a stage yesterday to defend Jeremy Clarkson and James Dyson's right to hang on to their multimillion pound inheritances, now furiously complaining about the Government handing pay rises to public sector workers.
