If Labour won’t nationalise water, their “big overhaul” is a con. Sewage in our rivers. Bills going up. Profits protected. Public services should be in public hands.

The "biggest overhaul of the water industry in England and Wales since privatisation"? Sounds more like the biggest missed opportunity to genuinely hold polluters to account for decades of negligence and environmental vandalism. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

2025 was the third-hottest year on record despite the influence of the La Nina cooling event. www.bloomberg.com/news/feature...

🥱 The Tufton St climate deniers have published a new report about the "cost of net zero" - ignoring the cost of sticking with fossil fuels. 🔥 Economic "cost" is the wrong paradigm. What about the "cost" of trying to survive on an uninhabitable planet? www.businessgreen.com/news/4524063...
