Letter to the editor in devolution plans: “What comes to mind when we hear the term ‘democracy’? Do we live in a democratic society here in England? This month, I experienced a troubling reality: my right to vote was stripped away.” @sussexbylines.co.uk

This has Special Economic Zones written all over it. BlackRock, amongst others, & private financing. Citing the revolution in house building & the introduction of the NHS under Clement Attlee's Labour government. He mentions using any levers available! "What levers?" www.lemonde.fr/en/united-ki...

Don't assume that 'Sovcorps' and charter cities will not be happening in the UK, SEZs are the beginning. "Every patch of land on the planet has a primary owner, which is its sovcorp. These owners will be large, impersonal corporations" Curtis Yarvin europeanpowell.substack.com/p/the-uk-is-...

The End Game? Thames Water restructuring deal would provide £1.5bn now, potentially rising to £3bn. Already has £19bn debt. Customer bills will rocket. New money would pay adviser fees, existing interest charges, leaving £500m in usable cash. And after that? End the Ponzi scheme. Nationalise

If people want proportional representation? The tools to achieve this are readily available. Vote independent. I'm now a Green, that is, until the baggy arsed traitor & his corporate phoneys are dismissed from the Labour Party. Don't forget this government is compromised.

I tweeted this in 2023. Charter cities shall have EXCLUSIVE jurisdiction to regulate matters, including labor law, tax law, environmental law, business registration, land registration, and dispute resolution, and the administrative authority necessary to exercise those powers'.

⚠️Warning⚠️ As I have been saying for the last few years, charter cities will devour the UK, abolish the welfare state, and destroy the environment by turning entire cities into competing feudal entities. Absolute chaos and societal breakdown will ensue. 1/2 www.youtube.com/watch?v=kHC2...

Nearly two-thirds of Britons say very rich have too much influence on politics. They fund political parties, legislators; get access to policymakers to shape laws. Capital gains, dividends taxed at lower rates than wages We are voting fodder in a sham democracy www.theguardian.com/inequality/2...

KPMG under investigation over audit of gambling company Entain. It is a serial offender, even submitted forged documents to the regulator investigating Carillon audit failures. Still not shut down. Gets govt contracts. Puny fines do nothing. Dud audits continue. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Lest we forget that Labour want to scrap local councils and create super authorities too. They are selling it as devolution after the Tories bankrupt city councils with underfunding , I see it as re-structuring with probably poorer services. And lest we forget this is all linked to Freeports too.

I’m so fed up of politicians saying that people opposed to NHS privatisation are driven by ideology. I’m a doctor by background and I’m driven by evidence. Just going to post something from the @everydoctor.org.uk account - please could you share when I post?

This is important & necessary. I’d add only that a) It’s clear many of the political & media figures deliberately ignoring these facts are playing with the sort of fire we saw on our streets this summer & b) Laura Kuenssberg’s failure to point this out to Farage was an appalling dereliction of duty.

Your Drs are being stolen from you. Across the NHS, a role taught 2 years of "PA studies” is substituting for Drs trained for 10 to 15 years. This is about cutting training and safety. It is not about care.
