Well done Judge Nichols! But can one brave judge prevail for long against a lawless despot, and an uncontrollable billionaire beyond the reach of reason or decency? He can only try. And for that, thank you Sir! www.bbc.com/news/article...

Judge slams Ofwat and govt for not attending Thames Water hearing. No one representing people/customers as lenders carve the company. Thames has £19bn debt, wants to borrow another £3bn, only £1bn will be useable, customer bills will rocket, won't resolve the crisis. Nationalise. archive.ph/NVzcP

Just Now These were family homes in Jenin today. The Zionists came along and just blew them up. Why? Because “western values” appears to include randomly exploding people’s homes if they’re brown.

Farage truly is Trump writ small. Like his master, he lies. Easily. Naturally. Automatically. To both of them, lying comes as easy as breathing. It's part of them. It's what they do... We must NEVER allow this to feel normal, or it will become normal. They should be called out, every time! 👍

Something I wasn’t prepared for coming to live in the UK was how preoccupied politicians are with growth as a panacea for all problems and just how bad journalists and commentators are at explaining why that’s not true.

Labour supporters on here are worse than the Tories used to be on twitter. Your government is pushing Thatcherism, and you defend it. I'm not a fan of Thatcherism, that's why I don't support them.

UK Health Secretary Wes Streeting says the NHS will remain 1. publicly funded. 2. free at the point of delivery. Silent on what is happening in-between. NHS becoming a shell, handing contacts to private sector. 30%-40% of money vanishes in profits. Money buys less. Say NO to NHS privatisation.

The idea of a Labour government was supposed to address the needs of the working class. Not the companies that exploit us. There is absolutely no point in a Labour government with conservative economic and social policies. Change, my arse.

A Unite survey shows that pensioners are suffering real-life effects of the needless cut to winter fuel. They're shivering at home, having to go without bathing or without meals. Instead of picking the pocket of pensioners, the govt should be looking at a wealth tax on the very richest in society.

Few material things can provide perspective. This does for me. Photo of Otto Frank, returning to his family’s hiding place. In 1944, an informant betrayed them and the family was sent to Auschwitz. His wife (Edith) was murdered, his daughters (Margot & Anne) died of Typhus.

England's water industry promises £22bn environmental investment, funded by rising bills. Previous promises? Customers already paid for years. Companies didn't invest, paid dividends, dumped sewage. Why pay again? Soon water will cost more than energy. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

How's your Labour government going, Gabriel? Any self-reflection about why it became the most hated government in British democratic history after being handed the election on a plate? PS We can't all be as famously nice as the definitely-not-a-bunch-of-jumped-up-thugs Labour Right!

Economic growth alone not enough to cut child poverty. One in three children will be in poverty in England. Must end two child benefit cap. Redistribute income/wealth. Learn from Scottish Govt which has better record of dealing with child poverty. www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

Right-wing think tanks are promoting charter cities, and they’re a nightmare for the UK youtu.be/kHC2qp7tIoQ?... Charter cities are a right-wing fantasy. They’re being promoted by the same people who gave us the economics of Liz Truss. And they’d be even more harmful than she was.
