The America vulture capitalists now running Thames Water are trumpeting Liz Barber, former CEO of Yorkshire Water, as the new saviour of the company.
Would that be the same Liz Barber who put up customer's bills by 41% and then refused to give up her own bonus? Of course it would.
Liz Barber was paid £1.32 million in her final year as CEO of Yorkshire Water.

The more I dig, the more I realise that Nigel Farage is literally done for. It's over for him. The £5 million bung is big enough to take the entire Reform movement down and possibly land Nigel in jail.
1) The fact the donation was made BEFORE Nigel was MP is absolutely irrelevant. Parliamentary Code of Conduct requires all receipts for the full 12 months before election. Nigel receiving his bung just a few days before he announced his candidacy makes it so much worse, not better.
2) "Category 5: Gifts and benefits from sources outside the UK - THRESHOLD FOR REGISTRATION Section 39. Members must register, subject to the paragraphs below, any gifts or benefits with a value of over £300 which they receive from a source outside the UK."
Nigel argues this was 'purely personal' but the Code refers to partners or families when it comes to personal gifts... this takes us to the next issue...
3) Christopher Harborne has a long track record of making SUBSTANTIAL political contributions to Nigel's parties, first to The Brexit Party, and later to Reform. He is a POLITICAL DONOR - any "gift" he made to Farage CANNOT be argued as personal or without political context due to this track record.
4) Using his platform as an MP, Nigel went on to promote 2 companies in which Christopher Harborne holds $ billions in stock - Nigel NEVER publicly endorsed or mentioned these companies prior to the "gift". Nigel also began actively pushing for policy that would directly interest Christopher Harborne and his business affairs. These were not interests that any could argue could possibly be of interest to his constituents - deregulation of crypto, and lowering of taxes on crypto gains. Nigel spent a substantial amount of time and effort pushing these policies.
It is beyond a doubt that this is the biggest breach of Parliamentary Code of Conduct rules in relation to donations in parliamentary history.
But even more concerning for Nigel will be that if it can be proven he was secretly incentivised to use his public office to push for policies to support a wealthy donor, then he should very likely face a criminal probe for corruption and bribery. I suspect Harborne might also be exposed to this. The United Kingdom and Thailand have a bilateral extradition treaty. Maximum prison sentences of up to 10 years for the offence.
This is not going to go away.
Here's Farage parroting Russian propaganda lies that could have come straight out of Lavrov's mouth.
Are we really to believe that Nathan Gill, who spouted the same lies, is the only Russian asset in Reform UK?
🚩🚩🚩Newly released Bannon–Epstein messages (2017–19) show Epstein was giving daily strategic advice to Steve Bannon while Bannon and Farage were building a transatlantic far-right project.
Epstein wasn’t just a social acquaintance. He was in the room, digitally, for the construction of modern populism.
Farage’s partner, Laure Ferrari, literally co-founded the Brussels organisation (“The Movement”) that Bannon used to build a European nationalist network.
Who helped shape the money structure and the logistics? 👉Jeffrey Epstein.
Epstein advised Bannon on:
– how to avoid FARA disclosure
– how to use 501(c)(4) dark-money non-profits
– how to shield political operatives with media shells
– how to keep funding “opaque”
– how to structure a European revolution without legal exposure
This was not small talk.
This was political engineering.
Bannon told Epstein he was working with:
“Nigel, Boris and Rees-Mogg… the guys are trying to move on May today/tomorrow.”
This places Epstein inside the communications chain of the plot to topple Theresa May, while Brexit was at its most volatile.
Epstein also:
– Offered Bannon the use of his island and homes for political strategy
– Arranged accommodation, flights and meetings
– Critiqued Bannon’s media appearances
– Acted as a sounding board on Europe, Salvini, Le Pen’s allies and the gilets jaunes
He was not a spectator.
He was an influencer.
In other words:
🔹 Mandelson: embarrassing proximity.
🔹 Farage: political collaboration through Bannon.
Farage wasn’t merely around the Epstein orbit. He was inside a political machine Epstein helped shape.
And look at the substance:
– Bannon called Farage “the face” of the European far-right project
– Farage’s partner built the Brussels shell
– Farage brokered the meeting that handed it to Bannon
– Epstein provided the dark-money blueprint
This is not gossip.
This is architecture.
Farage sells himself as a man who “took on the elites”. Yet the newly revealed truth is far darker:
His Brexit project was intertwined with 👉Bannon, Epstein, US dark-money networks, Salvini, Le Pen’s bloc, and the hardest edge of the global far right.
Brexit was never anti-establishment.
It was never grassroots. It was never patriotic.
It was a transnational authoritarian project, backed by billionaires, extremists, and a convicted sex offender with global influence.
And Farage was right at the centre of it.
If Mandelson had emails showing Epstein advising him on political strategy, funding routes and foreign influence operations, the country would erupt.
Farage has exactly that except worse.
Because the stakes were Brexit and the reshaping of Europe.
And that truth is finally out 💥

@implausibleblog His mother lived in South Africa under apartheid. She should have schooled him better. Ignorant fuckwit racists. They are both embarrassing twats.
Kudos to @mehdirhasan.
Not only did he invite me on his show to talk about my investigation into Farage’s funders (no UK channel ever did).
But he also asked a former colleague of Nathan Gill’s in the EU parliament whether UKIP had ever taken Russian bribes 🔥
Nigel farage wants you to think that Britain has an immigration problem.
It doesn't.
Britain had a problem with millionaires hoarding wealth, egged on by politicians and the press.
Britain has a problem with racism.
Britain has a @Nigel_Farage problem.
RT if you agree.
