2nd PMQ today and proud to relay the case of my constituent, Christopher, who was discharged from the RAF in 1966 solely for being gay.

He deserves justice - and his medals, beret and dignity to be restored to him. @fightingwithpride.bsky.social

I just signed a petition calling for an urgent investigation into Peter Mandelson's dealings with Palantir. Did he use his position as UK Ambassador to benefit the US spy tech firm? Sign now: www.foxglove.org.uk/campaigns/ma...

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.
Consecutive governments have & are putting water companies before the people.

Unbelievable.
The UK government has handed total control of our defence system’s & infrastructure to a American company who at a whim could literally turn our lights off.
Are we really that deep into American pockets that we could hand over total control? Saves Trump threatening invasion.

If ever there was a Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing it is Kier Starmer, a deceitful being who has the interests of our country behind that of America & those who run it.

🔴 In the past 48 hrs, Gaza’s Health Ministry reported 4 killed & 12 injured arriving at hospitals.

▪️Since the ceasefire on Oct. 11, 2025:
- Total killed 481
- Total injured 1,313
- Total previously killed bodies recovered 713

This brings the recorded death toll from the Israeli genocide in Gaza...
January 24, 2026 at 11:16 PM
With due respect to all who gave their lives following the call of duty in Afghanistan, what Starmer has said is a farce, there has been no condemnation of the genocide in Palestine including the murder of British aid workers abetted by the British military against the will of the British majority.
