🚨Reeves hands £1.3bn of taxpayer cash to Universal to build Bedford theme park
What the actual F?
In 2025, all Universal Parks worldwide generated $9.8 billion in sales and $3.1 billion in operating profit.
Does Reeves really think this company deserves, let alone needs, taxpayer funding?
This is £1.3bn of the same tax money that has forced thousands of UK businesses to shut up shop and sent tens of thousands of Brits to the benefits office.
This is lunacy and corruption on a magnificent scale.
I am not joking when I say that Rachel Reeves belongs in prison for a very long time.
"My personal pride and joy." That's how Peter Mandelson described the Palantir deal he brokered.
The whole thing stinks. Kick Palantir out of our NHS, now.
Net Zero zealot Ed Miliband wants us plebs to cut back on red meat and dairy. Yet the Labour government enables over 500 AI data centres that deplete energy and water supplies as BlackRock invests up to £500 million in these monstrosities. One rule for them, another rule for us.
@premnsikka@unojen_wood They factor these fines into their operating model and still fleece us enough to make huge shareholder profits and bonuses. They’re quite happy to poison with payment.
South West Water fined £1.853m for supplying contaminated drinking water.
SWW is a serial offender, loses 107m litres of water daily to leaky pipes, dumped sewage in rivers for 407,006 hours.
Still trades. No exec fined, charged. People fleeced.

The UK now hosts more than 500 active data centres (the third largest in the world). They have been rammed through despite huge local community concerns about the impact on their local landscapes and energy and water consumption.
These enormous data centres are giant industrial facilities consuming vast quantities of electricity, water and land while placing increasing pressure on the UK’s energy infrastructure.
▪️Water consumption by data centres is expected to reach 9.3 trillion litres, while CO2 emissions will rise to 399 million tons.
▪️Annual power consumption from data centres is projected to double to 945 TWh by 2030, around the same as the whole of Japan’s energy consumption, with AI accounting for 40% of the total.
▪️The rise of AI is accelerating this trend. The UK Government's Compute Roadmap notes that AI data centres can devote up to 40% of their energy consumption to cooling systems.
▪️It is estimated that data-centre power and water consumption could double by 2030 due to AI growth.
▪️Emerging research suggests large AI facilities can create localised warming effects around their sites, sometimes described as a “data heat island” effect.
Numerous campaigns against these data centres are being organised by local communities. No one voted for this. If you are involved in any of these local campaigns, please DM me and I’ll try and help you amplify your campaigns.
@wesstreeting I didn't hear you raising any concerns.
This is infuriating. You didn't raise concerns. People who were raising concerns were being silenced, getting in trouble at work, having to discuss with HR. You were in government, and could have done something.
A British national living in Southampton had her car and property damaged. She said,
“I’ve never felt so unsafe in my house.”
She did not feel unsafe because of Sikhs, Muslims or migrants but because of other British nationals, a section of whom were far right.
Wait … what?? Remember Labour demanded every WhatsApp message from Tories because transparency mattered?
And condemned government by WhatsApp?
But now they say deleted messages are nothing to worry about.
They are all the same. Power before country!
🚨Taxpayers are getting ROBBED! again!!
Labour is handing £1.3 billion of our money for a massive American theme park.
While families drown in energy bills and the NHS collapses.
These absolute clowns are prioritising billionaire profits over real British problems.
Absolute disgrace.
Enough!
WHY is the British tax payer PAYING for universal studios United Kingdom resort to be built?
Am I missing something?
Surely universal studios should be paying!?
