'Because these are not luxuries. They are foundations. Water. Food. Energy. Transport. Housing. Care. Education. Universal. Accountable. Democratic.'

The classic moves for #Privatisation

England is the only place in the world that has its water system fully privatised.
Our ru era and seas are literally full of shite!
Call for action, end privatisation reintroduce regulations. #DirtyBusiness #Privatisation

#Privatisation doesn't work for the people, it works ONLY for the millionaires & billionaires & the fatcat bosses.

Prices go UP, quality of service goes DOWN & the wealthy become richer. All at our expense.

We need public ownership & to #TaxTheRich with a #WealthTax.

Just catching up on #DirtyBusiness and...fuming. The lies, the duplicity, the scheming. #Privatisation of water was always a stupid, stupid idea, but add to it incompetent regulation by #Ofwat and...voila. An absolute national disgrace.

Streeting’s NHS plan: the deadliest corporate cuckoo yet placed in the health service THE publication of Wes Streeting’s 10 Year Plan for Health in England removes any doubts that Health Secretary is dead-set to hammer the final nails into the coffin of the NHS.Rather than support a service geared to meeting the clinical needs of the population, the NHS is to be repurposed to serve the interests of private healthcare companies, big tech and financiers.
