After years of neglect, Labour announce a record investment of £2.65bn to build new flood defence and maintain existing ones. Over 1000 projects will be helped, protecting 66,000 homes from flooding. It won't fix everything over night, but it's a step in the right direction to undo Tory damage.

This is a long, excellent piece about why living in a digital world keeps getting more difficult and annoying.

“We only have one more chance left to save the West and we can do great things together.” Ugh. These dickhead-egomaniacs are out of control. They shouldn’t be able to threaten our democracy like this. Not everything is for sale, you loathsome bastards. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...
