The British public has been robbed - and our waters polluted to an extreme - and STILL Labour are refusing to renationalise water, disgraceful

Not sure how he’s dropped 0.3 to be honest! 😅

One of the best goals of the season. It’s amazing in slow motion. To do that in real time…🤯

A cartoon by Ron Cobb (1975), showing a shadow of US B-52 bomber above cratered landscape. Two people who look like Vietnamese peasants look up; one says “they’re having problems with their economy again.”

This is from 1975.

“If you take out Saddam, I guarantee you it will have enormously positive impact in the region"

A million people died, an entire society was destroyed in a War based on a complete lie.

🚨 It looks like the UK government is gearing up to upend copyright law in favour of AI companies, legalising the theft of their work.

This is despite creatives' huge protests, and despite previous proposals being roundly rejected by the public.

Please spread the word.

Populist buses always sell fairy tales—just like the Brexit bus. In 2022 (and before), Orbán promised Hungary a bright future. Today, Hungarians face some of Europe’s highest inflation, among the highest poverty risks, and the EU’s weakest material well-being for families. 1/2

Looks like the "Bibi will release the files unless Donald attacks Iran" rumor was just as spot-on as Epstein's 2017* assessment of who has power in the Trump White House.

*Not 2016; typo in original post.

Here’s Epstein in June of 2016 advising someone in Qatar how to manage Trump, and explaining who really has power in the White House: “Israel does. Ivanka does. Biz interests do.”

Yorkshire Water fined over £700,000 for repeated sewage releases Company admits three pollution events that killed fish and insects in Pools Brook country park near Chesterfield

I speak as someone regularly ripped off to ensure that Yorkshire Water's complex network of owners all make plenty of undeserved profits and bonuses.

What a marvellous idea privatisation was... 🤮

Daily Mail: BEWARE THE GREEN MENACE

Professor Clifford and Jo Grant recoil in horror from a giant maggot AKA The Green Death.

Government doubles down on £100 billion water nationalisation price tag – but are they coming clean on the true cost of publicly owned water? The government has tied itself in knots over the cost of nationalising water. They're doubling down on their dodgy £100 billion figure, and their logic has not always held up.

❌"Buying back water would be too expensive [ie it's far better to stick with the 💩show we've got now]"

The figure the Government touts of £100bn to take water into public hands is based on a report funded by the water industry in 2018.

Nazi supporting paper says what?

I think it's worth celebrating the fact that the Green Party has gone from "gets invited onto Question Time a few times each decade" to "unhinged front page scaremongering in the Daily Mail" in the space of a year.

A newspaper genuinely beyond parody
