Who's with Carol. You don't need to be as smart as her to understand where she's coming from.

"Everything She Wants" is a single by the English pop duo #Wham, released in 1984 under #EpicRecords. The song was part of a double A-side release with "#LastChristmas". Written and produced by #GeorgeMichael, a member of the duo, "Everything She Wants" garnered significant acclaim.

We need to be like Scotland, but I don't see any government renationalising the water industry unfortunately

Water crisis looms as company warns it can’t meet demand for new homes Councillors say it must serve as a wake-up call on the Labour government's plans to build 1.5m new homes

South East Water says it can't provide water to all new homes

Water companies haven't built new reservoirs for decades, paid dividends, govts did nothing

Govt wants to build new homes but no infrastructure planning. That's what happens when you privatize essentials infrastructure.

After the Treasury meeting yesterday I was spoke to BBC Points West about the heating oil crisis. If profiteering is happening I encourage people to write to me & I will be taking the evidence directly to the Minister. The Govt must bring in a price cap for heating oil. Sarah.dyke.mp@parliament.uk

Sceptics claim today's high winds in the Northern UK mean wind turbines will be "switched off".

Some will, but not because of windspeed – they can be feathered to handle that.

No, years of underinvestment in the privatised Grid mean it can't take oversupply, so darn sarf we need gas generation.

How democratic is the UK? The UK has a crisis of democracy

Health and social care handed to corporations.

Profits of 32%-43% from cataract surgery.

Profit margins of up to 21% for child fostering services.

19% – 25% profit margin for residential care for children.

Money buys less. Corporate profits guaranteed. Who asked the people?

Used to have a neighbour that smoked in their garden, the smoke would come into our house, had to keep the windows closed.

As the US/Israel attack on Iran is likely to tip the UK into recession, let's not forget that Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves are trashing our rivers, ecosystems, communities, health and resilience for the sake of economic growth. But, as they are now discovering, it's not something they can control.
