Thames Water's creditors want to set a new low for privatised water by asking Ofwat to sign off on a deal which allows them to break the rules. Ofwat are poised to agree. We can't let them. Email your MP now: weownit.org.uk/act-now/the-...
King Charles is set to meet Trump next month to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the US.
Trump is conducting an illegal war on Iran – the King’s visit would serve as a statement of support for this illegal war.
It must not go ahead.

Should Keir Starmer send the King to honour Trump with a state visit?
Absolutely not.
Time to stop appeasing the President who is causing so much harm to the world.

A WARNING ! Late , but better late than never ! Thank god for @vizcomic.bsky.social
🤯60% of Wes Streeting's donors are from private health.
Good to see your texts with Mandelson. The public also has a right to know if health policy is being driven by unaccountable lobbying
Wes Streeting, release your messages with private healthcare. weownit.org.uk/news/wes-str...
Our public services aren’t for a secretive profit-hungry US tech firm. Sign the petition to tell the Government to scrap all contracts with secretive US tech firm Palantir. you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/st...
Stop the stitch-up! The Government wants to push through water legislation, locking in a failed privatised system for decades without giving the public a say.
I’ve signed the petition to stop this water stitch-up and demand a public consultation. Add your name: actionnetwork.org/petitions/st...
🚨 NHS England is rolling out Palantir software for our health records - handing huge power to a US firm with a track record in surveillance, military technology and human rights abuses.
Email your local Trust and say NO to Palantir in the NHS: notopalantir.goodlawproject.org/email-to-tar...
As Robert Jenrick jumps ship, Reform’s “new politics” looks more like a spin cycle for the same people behind 14 years of decline.
🚨Our BBC is under attack 🚨 We can't let those that want to see it torn up & replaced by the likes of GBNews or Fox win. Sign the open letter now to demand the new BBC boss is someone that will protect the BBC, not let its enemies tear it down: 38d.gs/2sa8
Brazil is drilling in the Amazon while claiming to be a climate champion! I have just asked Brazil to choose to lead the world away from fossil fuels at #COP30. Add to the pressure👇

Our national parks are under threat.
The Treasury wants to weaken the laws that protect areas like Dartmoor and the Lake District by opening them up to bulldozers and roads!
Right now, Ministers are debating the plans, but no decision has been made yet. That means we still have time to stop it.
Sorry but 💀
Our rivers and seas can’t wait FIFTEEN YEARS, Thames Water.

Best NIMBYs ever! 😃 #Vance
I’m watching a live stream
It doesn't matter if it's the Conservatives or Labour allowing 8 sites to be sold off every year. Even if a few might be replaced, some won't.
One allotment sold, and lost from community use forever, is one too many.

When Royal Mail was sold off we were told that this was to protect letter deliveries.
Ofcom is now consulting on cutting letter deliveries from 6 to 3 days a week.
When will they admit privatisation has failed?
Take 1-min to send Ofcom this message: weownit.org.uk/act-now/usin...
KKR inspired a film about corporate greed called Barbarians at the Gate.
Privatisation of water opened the gate to the ‘barbarians’. With record sewage pollution and bills going up 26%, we are witnessing the failure of that privatisation experiment.
