If you're one of Thames Water's 16 million so-called "customers" the money from your bills should be spent on investment to tackle sewage, not wasted on expensive creditors and shareholders

Here's how to end the rip off and get PUBLIC OWNERSHIP 👇

Most Black Country residents live within a mile of open water, making water safety more important than ever💧

Last week, we welcomed @RLSSUK to a Sandwell session as part of the Black Country Water Safety Programme.

Hear from Charity Director Matt Croxall on why this matters👇

Hi @WolvesCouncil did you know about this fallen tree at the top of Newhampton Rd? Currently blocking pavement but may obstruct carriageway too if it topples any further

“Aren’t you scared of swimming with sharks?” 🦈🌊

People keep asking me that since I started #TheSharkSwim.

And yes – I am.

But you know what scares me more?

A world without sharks.

They’ve survived 5 mass extinctions.
Now we’re wiping them out.

As apex predators, they keep the ocean in balance. No sharks = no healthy ocean.

That’s why I’m swimming.
Not to fear them.
To fight for them.

Sharks aren’t villains.
They’re vital.

Do you think that the Chief Executives of water companies should or should not receive prison sentences if they are found to be responsible for serious incidents of water pollution?

Should: 70%
Should not: 13%

Our analysis of over 70,000 NHS outsourcing contracts given out between 2012 and 2024 reveals that private firms made £6.7 billion in profits from NHS contracts over that period.

That means they made £10 million a week from NHS contracts.

"I would say to other parents, keep your children in for as long as possible because it’s such a skill to have and if it keeps them safe then just keep going" 🏊‍♂️

Swimming is more than just a fun activity, it's a vital life skill 👉 https://t.co/vHfzDQJFCM
