It’s not the PM’s job to go to the water companies, instruct them to fix the systems they neglected so they could steal more money and jail execs, if they don’t. The PM’s job is to go on TV and explain that nothing can be done, convincingly enough so that the public don’t demand it get fixed.
"24,000 households.. in Kent are waking up to a 5th day without water"
One affected resident says, of the private water company, "these guys should be in jail"
Labour could have taken our water back into public ownership. Instead they chose to side with the water companies.

American pressure may be powerful but I think they’re overplaying their hand. If Zelensky and Ukraine cannot stomach the deal - they will walk away and manage the considerable consequences but, this time the EU+ has learned its lesson and will stand with Ukraine, it may even create a sense of even

No matter how often it is repeated, what Moscow thinks "peace talks" and "ceasefire agreements" are for still confuses some Western counterparts.

Ignore any Trump admin and/or Ru apologist talk about progress. Ru demands remain maximalist, outrageous, and, most importantly, disconnected from the realities of the battlefield. Only an immediate ceasefire is progress. The discussion in Moscow today was useless noise. Ru continues its aggression.
