When is a fine on a company not a fine?

When it is levied on England's water companies with nearly 1,200 criminal convictions.

Headline grabbing fines are announced but not collected for years, not even paid.

No pressure on water companies to obey laws.

Water companies indulged by govt. Why?
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

“Nobody marched for the Syrians”
Mike Phipps reviews It Started in Damascus: How the Long Syrian Revolution Reshaped Our World, by Rime Allaf, published by Hurst. When Syrian President Hafez al-Assad died in 2000, the constitution was amended to lower the age at which a president could take office from 40 to 34. This enabled his son Bashar to be confirmed as the new president after a referendum in which he was the sole candidate.

The consultation on “earned” settlement is a farce. These damaging proposals must be dropped in their entirety
By Evie Breese The government has recently unveiled the most significant changes to immigration rules in decades. These changes will fundamentally alter how people born overseas build their lives in the UK. Set to be applied retroactively, they will put settlement further out of reach for everyone born-overseas who hasn’t already obtained settled status, and reshape British society for everyone.
