Thames Water names US private equity (PE) group KKR as preferred bidder.

Worst possible outcome. Water industry woes started with PE.

PE business model: profiteering, asset-stripping, low investment, staff/wage cuts, tax dodging.

Govt must reject PE takeover. Must nationalise.

KKR expected to acquire stake worth £4bn as UK’s biggest water supplier tries to stave off nationalisation

A report on the 15 paramedics & ambulance/civil defence workers murdered by Israel & buried in a mass grave. The Palestine Red Crescent Society is rightly calling it a massacre.

Israel has murdered more than 600 healthcare workers in Gaza since October 2023.

The Hind Rajab Foundation has filed a criminal complaint against Barel Kriel, a German-Israeli idf tank commander, for his war crimes in Gaza.

Despite the evidence submitted, the German prosecution has refused to open an investigation.

Kriel bombed a civilian car & filmed its occupants burning.

What is that music?
I guess it's hard to find anything decent for Reform as many musicians won't allow their work to be used.
Couldn't they use some Right Said Fred or something?
