Good old @unitedutilities strikes again. 1 month ago 14 miles of coast closed because of sewage dumping and now this.

As a reminder the former CEO who retired in March was paid £30 million during 12 years he ran the company.

Think on that the next time you can't go for a swim.

Final cost of Johnson's legal bill for defence at Privileges Committee £265,000
Tories claimed this was normal to pay, but failed to be able to mention a single time it had ever happened before, in other words effectively another lie.
No surprise there eh?

"If freedom of movement was reinstated tomorrow, I could fill the 15 vacancies I need to reopen for lunch".
Multiply that by a whole country.
And let's not forget, freedom of movement is a 2-way street & it's your freedom that has been curtailed as well.

Dear 🇬🇧,

As we approach the NHS 75th anniversary, here's your reminder that 10 years ago, it was ranked the #1 healthcare system on Earth. You don't need a new system. You need a new govt that won't intentionally destroy it for their own financial benefit.

I think ticket offices at railway stations are one of those things that remind of what a society should actually be. Real jobs and real interactions , and community can sometimes be placed above shareholder dividends. It's a choice we can make. #SaveTicketOffices

[Feargal Sharkey @Feargal_Sharkey]

So @thameswater needs another £3.2bn by 2030.

Who's paying? Let me take a guess, they want it to come out of our pockets not theirs, wouldn't that be right @Ofwat?

We are corporate slaves now.

They dodge taxes & profiteer from food, water, energy, the environment, transport, communications, sickness and more.

Political parties have been bought.

Putting a cross on paper hasn't held them to account.

What next?

This Tory government is patently corrupt and cruel.

Prove me wrong

Our #NHS deserves better

[Feargal Sharkey @Feargal_Sharkey]

The results are in.

98.1% of those who voted though that @UKLabour should respect the wishes of voters and nationalise the water industry.

1.9% felt they should help Liv Garfield save her £4m salary. I assume the latter were votes from Liv and her immediate friends and family.

[Feargal Sharkey @Feargal_Sharkey]

A brilliant and detailed assessment of what’s gone wrong, where we are and what needs to happen next.

With the terrifying conclusion “Government thinks that saving the private water companies is more important than them polluting our water, rivers and beaches”.

[Feargal Sharkey @Feargal_Sharkey]

From the man who was trail blazing the financial time bomb that is England’s water industry long before the rest of us even knew there was a trail to be blazed.

Respect.

UK water companies have managed to rack up combined debts of an eye-watering £65 billion. What on earth have they done with all that dosh? Certainly not repair massive water leaks or stop sewage polluting rivers and beaches. Even the absurd dividends they’ve been paying themselves can’t account for it. Perhaps Ofwat could explain, if it wasn’t in their pocket (clear example of what is known as regulatory capture).
