Crypto investor gives £9m to Reform UK as donations exceed those to Tories.

Super rich don't donate, they invest to shape party policies to secure advantages for their class.

Normal people can't match them.

Direct donations to political parties must be criminalized.

What will Alan Mak do now he has been demoted to the back benches ? This has to be the end of his political career? Surely not a candidate for defection to the reform party?

Thames Water is now controlled by two US credit powerhouses: Silver Point Capital and Elliott Management.

Their game - asset stripping, profiteering, slick PR, devour; to get high returns.

Govt can put an end by bringing water into public ownership, but refuses. People's misery to deepen.
Thames Water: Britain's biggest utility just got captured by toxic private credit markets
No rescue. No reform. Just control - seized through debt. That's the state of Thames Water, as Waterways Protection writes

GP surgeries owner Assura agrees to private equity takeover worth £1.61bn.

All part of creeping privatisation of the NHS.

Corporations focused profits, not care. People struggle to get timely GP appointments.

NHS privatisation hoisted on people. No one voted for it.
