A rallying 'town hall' meeting in North Finchley - amazing work by the team putting it together, and a solid reminder that you have to really fight to assert your democratic rights when the odds are so heavily stacked in favour of private wealth.

Water bills for England households to rise even higher.

Bills already up by 36%. Competition regulator permits another 1%-5%, £556m hike

No curbs on exec pay, dividends, sewage dumping as companies raise capital from customers, shareholders get returns.

End the Scam. Nationalise water
Five water firms provisionally allowed to raise bills by further 1% to 5%
An independent group appointed by the competition watchdog rejected nearly 80% of increases sought by companies.

For those curious about the details of Ireland making their Basic Income for Artists program permanent, it looks like the same number of artists will get the same amount of money, unless they can secure more funding, in which case it would be 2,200 artists instead of 2,000. Not sure about duration.
Basic Income Scheme made permanent in the Budget with plans to expand for more Irish artists | Nialler9
Three years of continuous research linked to the Basic Income for the Arts pilot unequivocally proves the scheme’s positive impact on artists’ productivity

Reform are trying to sell the myth that deporting people and removing the rights of migrants will solve all the country's problems. It won't.

Know what would help solve the country's problems? Taxing the super-rich properly and closing the inequality gap.
INEQUALITY IS THE PROBLEM
REAL HOPE. REAL CHANGE.

🚨 Renters have faced outrageous hikes with rogue landlords exploiting the housing crisis.

🏠 This week, Parliament votes on permanent rent controls - and that’s only happening because of the Scottish Greens.

The ad industry has a dirty little secret. Well, actually, it's not little at all.

"Zack Polanski described a second Gatwick runway as a “disaster”. “Ignores basic climate science and risks undermining efforts to tackle the climate crisis.

“Labour keeps wheeling out the same nonsense about growth, but at what cost?”

It's party conference season. We thought it was time to see where each party stands on public ownership. 🔎

Some of the results might surprise you!

Absurd. How little does this Government care about the climate?

Squeezing out 100k more flights a year won’t improve people’s daily lives. Investing in a growing green economy to lower bills, create high-paid jobs and cut deadly air pollution will! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

As a start, one of the changes coming to conference for a vote in the Culture Media and Sport chapter redraft is a proposal to treat advertising & lobbying as two sides of the same coin. So any products banned from advertising - tobacco, gambling, high carbon emitters - will be banned from lobbying
