Brexit remains unforgivable in the damage it’s done to our country, our democracy and to people’s lives. Ruinous stupidity, vengeful prejudice and political dishonesty. And Farage wants more of that. Threatening to tear up improvements to our Brexit deal and leave the ECHR.
Jeezus, UK. Wake TF up.

Investors tell Thames Water to ‘eat humble pie’ over failed takeover and open bids CK Infrastructure says watchdog should intervene to let other firms bid after KKR pulled out

China billionaire owner of Northumbrian Water wants to bid for Thames Water.

NW has 50+ criminal convictions, dumps sewage in rivers, fleeces customers.

90% of England's water is foreign owned.

More of the same can't solve problems.

Must end privatisation. Must nationalise.

🧵The Covid Inquiry’s latest reports have made one thing brutally clear: the first year of the pandemic - and especially the second Covid wave in winter 2020/21 - was devastating.

Much of that devastation was avoidable.

This 🧵: impact on NHS, impact on bereaved, and avoidable harm. 1/19

Something Nefarious Is Quietly Taking Over Your Neighborhood Doctor’s Office It’s quietly reshaping Main Street medicine. Your wallet—and health—might suffer as a result.

Curse of private equity.

US PE-owned dentists
Raise prices.
Stretch appointments for higher fees.
Focus from prevention to lucrative restoration procedures.
Unnecessary tooth extractions and root canals.
High staff turnover

Curse arrived in the UK. No curbs on profiteering, public abuse.

History repeating itself?

UKIP under Nigel Farage controlled Thanet Council and nearly bankrupt it.

Reform UK under Nigel Farage controls Worcestershire Council and it’s on the verge of bankruptcy.

Never trust Reform UK. Imagine a country run by them. We'd be bankrupt with Trussite policies.
