Food prices to be hit by Brexit import charges.

Small imports of fish, salami, sausage, cheese, yoghurt, etc. to be subject to fees of up to £145.

Real average wage same as in 2007.

That red bus didn't say that Brexit will add to cost of living crisis.

Thames Water hires restructuring advisers amid fears of collapse.

Crisis manufactured by years of greed, neglect, regulatory failure and govt obsession with privatisation.

No bailout for Thames. Let it go bust. Nationalise water.
theguardian.com/business/2024/…

PR spin from Thames Water is that it hasn't paid dividends since 2017.

Ministers repeat the lie in parliament.

Thames Water audited accounts show that it has paid dividends to its sole shareholder (its parent company) - e.g. £45m in 2023, £37m in 2022.

It really is quite staggering to think of just how much money the Tories have borrowed over 14 Years.
Coupled with record taxes and 14 years of austerity you'd expect us to be awash with cash.

Instead we have a broke and broken country.

Where has the money gone?

Labour has £8bn black hole in its green plans, Jeremy Hunt claims.

So says, Chancellor causing £2.7trn debt, highest taxes for 70 years, flat economy. 7.6m NHS hospital appointment waiting list; crumbling public buildings, 14.4m in poverty.

Jeez ...

Just let that sink in - Liz Truss’ mini-budget helped knock £425bn off pension funds’ assets in 2022 cityam.com/liz-truss-mini…

Truss budget forced UK councils to take out massive 50-year loans at soaring rates, knocked £425bn off pension funds’ assets, and added an average £200 to every monthly mortgage payment. We will be paying for her blunders for the rest of our lives.
And, she won't just fvck off!

UK real living wage under threat as Capita and BrewDog pull out.

Brewdog CEO collected £577,000.

Even though #Brexit has cost the UK around £100 billion/year in lost output, it's not bad news for everyone in Britain: since the pandemic started, the collective wealth of Britain's 171 billionaires (many of whom fund the Conservatives) has increased by around £100 billion! 🇬🇧

The UK has the highest retirement age in the world, the lowest pension in Europe, the longest working hours in Europe, one of the lowest minimum wages, the highest energy costs, the biggest profits, and the lowest taxes for the richest.

It all needs to change.

The Tory party have given away
500 million to Tata.
37 Billion for a T&T system
60 billion for HS2
100s of Millions on P.P.E.
10s Millions on Furlough
Lost 40 billion because of Liz Truss's budget
Billions handed to Fujitsu.
Fuck me, they have the cheek to say don't trust Labour

NME top 30 albums of 1977. What a year for quality music. 🤩

Why is there always money to bomb people, but never any money to feed, house or care for people?

Gillian Keegan’s husband was the CEO of Fujitsu, the company at the centre of the Post Office scandal.

Fujitsu is a partner of Infosys.

Infosys is owned by Sunak’s wife’s family.

The Tories hands are all over this cover up and injustice. We cannot let them off the hook.
