Don't they realise that he was a draft dodger? So was his father. And his grandfather ran away from his home country to avoid fighting in a war.

One of the great achievements of the last 20 years is to prevent children from getting hold of free books. We did this by closing hundreds of libraries and sacking thousands of librarians.

I couldn’t quite belief this when I read it. Our water industry has effectively stolen from all of us, with full permission from our government….

Here’s the full quote from the Financial Times

“A damning report has shown that the UK has dropped out of the top 10 countries for good governance under Rishi Sunak’s leadership”

Mortgage possession claims have hit a five year high in the aftermath of Liz Truss’s disastrous mini-budget. We can never trust a Tory government again. Do you agree?

Well, the latest Rajar figures for Sangita Myska's show rather undermine the argument she was abruptly terminated by LBC (without a chance to say goodbye) because her ratings were tanking

The mystery deepens

So the firm run by a Tory Peer appointed by Boris Johnson (which donated to the Tories) who also appointed Lord Lebedev (& partied with him) & who took major donations for the Tories from Russian sources, was supplying Russia AFTER the invasion of Ukraine. theguardian.com/business/artic…

Now we’re ‘free of Brussels red tape’ they can put sewage into Lake Windermere in the NW, contaminate drinking water in the SW and pollute the seas all around us, at will. And we pay £££.
It’s not the absence of regs that consumers need so desperately, it’s their presence.

Even a decade ago, this would have been unthinkable…

Choosing to decline life-prolonging or life-saving treatments because accessing them is too difficult and costly

Hang your heads in shame Tory MPs and NHS Leaders…

This complete and utter failure is on your watch!

Brexit - lies and Russian interference. A Starmer government must set up an inquiry into the multiple Brexit abuses of democracy especially Russian and American private sector interference in Brexit politics

Before UK 'joined Europe' in 70s, it was known for its dirty beaches

While in the EU (mostly following EU norms) it wasn't much of an issue

Since Brexit, sewage problems and dirty water seem to be daily headlines now, unlike in any EU country ↙️

Some are joining the dots ↘️
