Regulation has failed.
This government imposed a Bonus Ban, but water bosses and shareholders will always find ways to reward themselves for their failures, with eye-watering payouts.
It's high time for the whole English water sector to come into public ownership.

Animals all around the country are being killed using catapults that have been easily bought in shops and online. We need to ban the sale of catapults to those under the age of 18 to stop these horrific killings. Add your name now: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/en...

Help me end hunting with dogs
Hunting with dogs was supposed to be banned 20 years ago, but in reality it never stopped. Hunts have continued to chase and kill wild animals as if the law never changed.

The explosion of extreme and dangerous misogyny in our schools is down to influencers like Andrew Tate.
Reminder:
Nigel Farage once described Andrew Tate as “an important voice for men”.

The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

FEBRUARY: The High Court grants Thames Water a £3 billion bailout, increasing its debt mountain. It limps along for the rest of the year.
