Under Trump’s “big, beautiful bill”, the top 0.1% will see their income increase by nearly $400,000 next year, while Americans making less than $51,000 will see their incomes GO DOWN. Oligarchs are waging a war on the working class, and they are intent on winning.

Reopening a 3.3-mile train line to Portishead from Bristol took 79,187 pages of planning documents. Printed out, that’s 14.6 miles of paperwork - 4.5 times the length of the actual railway. The process has taken 16 years.

Britain pays wind farms to turn off when it’s windy and overpays gas plants to switch on instead. It'll cost bill payers up to £8b/yr by 2030. Zonal energy pricing would slash this. We’ve started tracking this (avoidable) waste live on our site: octopus.energy

So when you hear people saying “they’re not even on”, “they’re always broken” or “they have to switch them off because they can’t handle too much wind” about wind turbines, point them to this…… It’s a grid problem, and it’s costing the consumer big time!

I'm going to try a little experiment. It's just gone 9:00am, London and parts of southern England are under an "Amber" weather warning, let's how long it takes for the sewage dumping to start and how it progresses over the next few hours. Oh look, it's only been raining for a

Come on Laura - stop letting Farage get away with grotesque lies on #climate - the green economy is growing 3 times faster than rest of the economy. The green transition is in our *economic interests* & it’s Farage who’ll de-industrialise the UK, not green policy #bbclaurak

A brilliant table, laying it out in black and white. We all admire and enjoy hospitality when abroad on holiday, but then wonder why it seems different in the UK - more expensive, with so many big chains serving value-engineered offers. Here is one very significant reason.

I wrote a piece for the Guardian about the real reason the UK houses asylum seekers in hotels. Since this website is now dominated by racists and fascists, I thought it would be helpful to post the key points below, for anyone who wants to know the truth.
