Water companies push for higher bills again as customers face up to 84% hike.

Water companies have 1,109 criminal convictions - an industry controlled by criminals.

Which other industry is controlled by criminals and guaranteed real returns by govt?

Labour just sold £1.3bn of NHS services to private equity.

Pay-off for political donations.

Private equity =profiteering, asset stripping, low investment, staff exploitation, poor care.

30%-40% money vanishes in profits - people get less for more money

The Tories are prepared to pay private doctors £3k a shift to cover strikes. The cost of strikes estimated to be over £1bn.

More than enough money to reverse the 13 years of wage losses suffered by doctors.

Be in no doubt the Tories are using low wages to destroy the NHS.

[Prem Sikka @premnsikka]

Tory sleaze and corruption.

Rishi Sunak brought a private healthcare lobbyist into Downing Street and has now handed his former clients a plum NHS contract.

Contract should be publicly available.

Privatisation and looting are the order of the day.

UK public debt:

Jun 2023: £2.6tn, 100.8% of GDP
Feb 2020, £1.791tn, 79.1% of GDP
May 2010, £1.03tn, 65% of GDP

Squandered on perks and tax cuts for the rich/corporations.
No new industries started. Public services destroyed.
Taxes at 70 yr high.
14.4m Brits living in poverty.

Damning High Court judgment against the UK Govt.

"the Secretary of State’s approach was contrary to section 12(2) of the 1973 Act, so unfair as to be unlawful and, indeed, irrational".

Govt uses state resources (our money) to abuse power.

It’s only when you go on very big demonstrations that you realise how UK media, including the BBC, bends over backwards to make sure nobody sees the demonstrations.

Jeremy Hunt handed tax cut, disguised as tax relief on pension contributions, to the richest 1%

Claimed it would help to retain doctors in the NHS - unlikely.

The giveaway would benefit 629,000 individuals, including all Tory ministers & wealthy donors.

All have been affected by Covid
One has been affected by Brexit…

The profits Shell & BP raked in could pay for an NHS pay rise 6 times over.

There’s plenty of money for a pay rise.

72% of the UK believe that Water Company bosses who illegally dump sewage should go to jail.

RT if you think they should too.

And they still charge customers BILLIONS in sewage treatment charges that they don’t do.

British Gas customer, 82, forced to raid his funeral funds after energy bill quadruple.

British Gas profits tripled. Generated by inflicting harm on society, hurting the poorest.

Bonanza for shareholders and execs. Facilitated by govt/Ofgem.

@dsquareddigest I just find it amazing that the Labour party thinks the two things it needs to do is:
a) Ban Corbyn from public life
b) Say 'fiscal responsibility' over and over

as if these are what their prospective voters can about. Rather than, a collapsing economy, NHS, schools, investment

[Howard Beckett @HowardRBeckett]

Private Water utilities have racked up £54bn of debt since privatisation. At the same time they have paid out £65.9bn to shareholders.

Debt accrued to pay themselves while polluting our waters and refusing to invest.

It’s a legalised Tory racket.

The number of Tory MPs convicted of sex offences in this parliament alone is greater than the number of people convicted of voter ID fraud since 2010

Picking our pockets.

Virgin Media putting up broadband bills up by 26%

BT, EE, TalkTalk, Virgin Media O2 and Vodafone hiking bills by 14%-17%.

Inflation (CPI) is 10.5%; wages down in real terms.

It is corporate robbery - Govt.Ofcom doing nothing.

It's not refugees stealing our wealth.

It's not assylum seekers.

It's not immigrants from abroad.

It is this corrupt government and their cronies.

It's mega companies and corporations.

It's big business denying us fair pay.

Wake up.

SHOCKING FACT: If you earned £40,000 a day from when Jesus was born to the present day, you would still not make as much as Shell did in profits last year
