If the government really wants a reset it needs fresh ideas. That means listening to its own supporters not shutting them out and trying and control them. Crawling up to Trump and refusing to challenge Brexit aren't cutting it.

Successive governments have supported this highway robbery, the success of Nationalisation outweighs the excessive costs to the people of Britain.
Every nationalised industry has had the full support of government but not the people. They are now preparing the #NHS

Turn Starmer into history he is definitely not for the people of the UK
History will put Starmer down as the worst leader the country has experienced worse than Boris Johnson
Starmer will be infamous for his duplicity, lack of integrity & his attention focused abroad rather than at home get him gone
Unions & Labour MPs call on Starmer to end 'narrow factional agenda'.

Authoritarian Starmer can't change. Left purged, local parties weakened, conference resolutions ignored.

Starmer withdrew whip from 7 MPs for opposing the two child benefit cap, now govt policy.

Need new leader, policy changes.

The UK has the same approach to politics as the USA, MONEY & how it corrupts politicians supposedly representing those who put them there, they are puppets yet no one focuses on the puppeteers that is where the real danger lays.
Remember that next time you vote.

Fines paid out of profits to proceed payments to shareholders.
Ofwat is a toothless biased organisation, track record heavily biased in favour of the water companies.
No matter the government the interests of water companies proceeds that of the customers.
Make the right choice at the ballot box.
England water companies have 1200 criminal convictions, leaders in predatory practices.

OFWAT/Govt lets them negotiate fines. Some won't be paid until 2030, others never.

Why does the govt indulge them? Watch the Minister's reply.

Support the free press, if you don’t it will be gone.
The UK are but steps behind the USA, our government supports the genocide of Palestinians.
Trump & his ICEmen will disrupt the US midterm elections & Starmer was the first world leader to wing himself over with congratulations on his re-election.
NEW: Trump's coup is almost complete. And the attack on the press is a central piece of it. Bezos's gutting of the Washington Post cannot be allowed to be just another blip in the news cycle.

We are all going to have to fight for a free and independent press.

Public ownership of water in England would mean no dividends to pay, £85bn paid since privatization.

Cost of borrowing would be around half, guaranteed by govt.

Reduction in consultant fees, don't need so many.

Simpler regulation, no shareholders to appease.

Result: more investment, lower bills.
Public ownership of water is the only way to deliver security, efficiency, investment and value for money
37 years of privatisation has been a disaster

If the water companies put the customer first instead of ring fencing their profits for themselves we would not be experiencing their highway robbery.
