Thames Water dumped sewage for 300,000 hours into rivers last year. It has criminal convictions, operates illegally. Change of ownership will deliver more of the same - chase for profits, high bills, sewage in rivers. Only public ownership can make a difference.

I know the right wing media finds it all very difficult so, in an attempt to be helpful, this is what an actual interference with free speech looks like.

Let’s honour the memory of Hossam Shabat. Take his courage, his clarity, his determination - and keep speaking up and keep fighting until Palestine is free. 🇵🇸

Morning Bluesky.

Apparently two weeks ago, a journalist was accidentally invited to a top-secret US military strategy group chat. You could not make this up.

Overnight Israel snatched one of the Palestinians they recently released in the ceasefire prisoner swap. As Palestinian lawyer notes, "There's this revolving door when it comes to imprisonment, that Israel uses the tool of mass incarceration to try and control Palestinians"

Last week we launched our #RetroFitForTheFuture campaign calling for: ✅ Accountability for retrofit work ✅ Investment in skills training ✅ Protection for renters Find out more: retrofitforthefuture.co.uk

I am truly terrified for Hamdan. If you don’t know who Hamdan Ballal is, he is the director of No Other Land and he and Yuval both won the Oscar for Best Documentary this year

This!

The happiest countries in the world are all the ones that focus on Socialist policies.

@premnsikka.bsky.social hits the nail on the head again.

We refuse to accept the normalisation of Palestinian deaths. End arms sales to Israel, now.

"Route confirmed - National demonstration for Palestine 📍 Piccadilly (Green Park) to Whitehall ⏰ 12 noon, Sat, 15 March The route for the next march for Palestine has been confirmed. We will march from Piccadilly to Whitehall. Join us" via @pscupdates.bsky.social

🚨New data released by Campaign Against Arms Trade reveals Labour licensed nearly £11m in arms exports to Israel during its first three months in office. CAAT's spokesperson said: "These figures show that this government is deeply complicit in genocide".

And meanwhile .... The world thanks you MSF!

🚨Labour Friends of Israel funded Luke Akehurst, a former pro-Israel lobbyist and now MP, to attend an AIPAC event in Washington last month. Who funds Labour Friends of Israel - and why won't it say? www.declassifieduk.org/who-funds-la...

Trumpism in the UK. NHS England to cut workforce by half as Streeting restructures. Populist mass sackings rarely achieve claimed objectives, but create turmoil. How long before we hear that the govt is unable to deal with pandemic/emergency and pays billions to consultants?

WATCH: The gloves are off! It’s been an under-reported scandal for quite a while that Pierre Poilievre refuses to apply for security clearance. It was a scandal EVEN BEFORE the most recent efforts to undermine Canada’s democracy, sovereignty and economy from Trump, Musk and the GOP. Share this.

Wow! The number of @bsky.app users just passed 33 MILLION!!! 👏 LETS DO THIS!!

I've worked in the NHS since 2009 and it that time it's been wave after wave after wave of job losses. It's f***ing exhausting. Can we stop sacking people and just fund the NHS properly?

This made me laugh.

Israel has cut off Gaza’s electricity supply in its latest act of genocidal collective punishment against the Palestinian people. This latest despicable act must be condemned by all governments and Israel must be sanctioned.

Politicians for Sale. UK political parties accepted £100m in donations in 2024. Donations are bribes made to exercise influence, subvert public choices and ensure that corporations/rich rule. Normal people can't compete. Can't cleanse politics without banning donations.

I've been Microsoft free since 2008. Linux may seem daunting, but it really isn't these days. I just use Ubuntu LTS out of the box (Currently on 24.04). To make things even less 'big tech' I run everything on an £80 Raspberry Pi! Two 4K screens, fast network, happy days. #deathofwindows #linux #rpi

Tough watch. Richard Tice can’t seem to name the Reform defectors he’s come to support or name anything he knows about Scottish politics.

No Other Land airs on Channel 4 at 11.15pm, Tuesday 4 March. Not to be missed. Witness how Israel steals Palestinian land and destroys homes and lives, shown through the eyes of Basel, a Palestinian filmmaker, and Yuval, an Israeli journalist. Oscar for BEST DOCUMENTARY.

Instant cancellation here!

Good morning all! 🇺🇦 Please share everywhere. 🙏🏻

Unbelievable. Donald Trump has been invited to a state visit to the UK. We should not be rolling out the red carpet to celebrate this man. Agree? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...

The 27th. February saw the creation of the Labour Representation Committee in 1900. It was an alliance of socialist organisations and trade unions and the origin of the Labour Party. We desperately need to get back to some of the principles of the LRC. They're turning in their graves.

The best way to confront a bully about the misinformation he is spreading is to confront him in front of everyone. Macron just did that.

Currently appearing at UK bus-stops. More of this pointed ridicule, please.

I'm beginning to see why they have a second amendment.

Appearing today in The Week:

Very interesting piece.

I'm tired of the misnomer "world's richest man" ... Elon Musk is the WORLD'S GREEDIEST MAN. We should correct that whenever we see it. #worldsgreediest
