Our big splash in the Financial Times today: just 1 in 4 UK companies that went bust received a going concern warning by Big Four auditors in their final years' accounts. Non-Big Four auditors were even worse. Read the thread from the The Audit Reform Lab below 👇

Since privatisation in 1989, water companies in England have incurred debts of more than £64bn and paid out £78bn in dividends.

Privatised water isn’t working for people or planet.

Tell the Government: bring water into public ownership, now.

The reason we must support these young people is because rightly, they are targeting the biggest emitters of toxic gases burning the planet.

They are targeting the 1%.

If the 1% cut their jet flights, super yacht purchases & luxury lifestyles - emissions cd fall dramatically.

It's time for organisations to pick up the phone youtu.be/rhGIgRFGDB8?si… How many times have you been told your call matters to a company or government department you're ringing, only to be put on hold again? Are they just lying to us? And isn't time that they really did value

We need proportional representation, now youtu.be/QOCVI9g5skw?si… People in the UK like to think we live in a democracy. But we don't. Not really. When all elections result in just one of two parties winning, we live in a country where rigged elections are the norm, and most of us

When the pursuit of ever greater wealth for the already wealthy is the goal of society something has to break taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2024/05/1… The Dow Jones Index has hit 40,000 in the surest sign that the US, like the UK, is being hollowed out to make the aheady rich even richer.
