I don't think people elsewhere fully grasp what's happening in NCR and just how hot it is. At 7am, the tap water is boiling hot. The sun hurts the eye. There's no night time anymore. For 24 hours the temperature feels above 40C. Which means during night the water is as hot

“The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command” is an overused quote from 1984, but passing an act that proclaims Rwanda safe, writing a new reality into law, does seem to require it

#RIPMichaelJayston The Valeyard has gone to the great courtroom in the sky, seen here at last year’s Return To Devil’s End hosted by @WhosAtThePlayho . The perfect evil laugh and a wonderful raconteur he will be much missed. Thoughts with his loved ones, family and friends.

I just got a message to say the incredible Michael Jayston has left us! He was an absolute gentleman, with the biggest twinkle in the business. An extraordinary raconteur and one of the loveliest men I’ve ever met. No more long lunches🥲
My thoughts are with his lovely wife Ann.

A lot of people seem to be really struggling to grasp exactly what the Tories have become.

It's no mystery to me- I've seen them up close, at work and play, and I think you guys need to understand what we're dealing with.

The NHS waiting list has increased under the last SEVEN Conservative prime ministers.

Please RT if you think everyone should be aware.

Brexit does the reverse of all of its economic promises.

It’s a disaster across the board - because it is and always has been a terrible move for the UK.

When you are dealing with an individual or GROUP OF PEOPLE who are gaslighting to manipulate you.

@CupOfTea69 @PatC63316307 @thameswater And guess who's about 3 mins walk away on the other side of the bridge? Why that'll be the @EnvAgency of course.

Wonder if EA senior management were able to see this projection on to the TW building from their office windows.

Did you know?

A new £100 million private hospital will be opening next year on the grounds of an NHS trust.

The new hospital will belong to a US-owned private healthcare company, HCA UK.

RT if you think everyone should be aware.

The latest Telegraph headline stack is like found poetry.
Truly you couldn't have dreamed up a better juxtaposition if you tried.

Doom, gloom, and hollow Brexit cheerleading. The perfect trifecta.

Magnificent.

Woo-who! I just bought my ticket. I had such an enjoyable day at this year’s event, I can’t wait for next June (but so sad it’ll be the last one). @WhosAtThePlayho

Minister says water privatisation has enabled "clean & plentiful water". What?? Since privatised, water firms have borrowed a staggering £53bn, much of that to help pay £72bn shareholder dividends - while sewage pours into rivers & seas. Privatisation has utterly failed @We_OwnIt

[Darren Jones MP @darrenpjones]

Corporate greed playbook:

💵Load company with debt

⬆️Dividends, exec pay and debt finance up

⬇️Investment, worker pay and customer service quality down

💀Company goes bust

💰Shareholders and execs walk away with millions

🏛️Taxpayer picks up the pieces

🤢 Rinse and repeat.
