Trump and the big tech CEOs are coming to the UK to pressure our government into SLASHING their tax. Tax that could be spent on training over 100,000 NHS nurses. If you want our government to stand strong and say no, join me and sign the petition:

Catch Eye hack Richard Brooks tonight on ITV1 in The Covid Contracts: Follow the Money.
The documentary tells the story of how some companies with little or no track record in supplying PPE or medical tests were given massive contracts - and made a killing from Covid.

A serial fraudster has registered dozens of fake βbanksβ at Companies House - with names like βUBS Group AG Ltd.β Every time heβs busted, he just does it again. Zero checks. Zero consequences. And a legit incorporation agent has enabled the fraud.

Ask your MP to show their support for a people-first future for our water!
We can make our water work for people - not shareholders - but water lobbyists are working hard to shut this solution down. Will you make sure your MP hears about it?
Our privatised water system is broken - and water lobbyists have worked hard to shut down alternatives.
In July the Peopleβs Commission is launching a people-first vision for our water in Parliament.
Your MP needs to hear about it: actionnetwork.org/letters/ask-...

Day 9 of Lois asking Steve Reed to join her at the football. β½
Something stinks about Thames Water's sewage plant upgrade costs. How can it be 15x more expensive than building a new one in other countries?
Perhaps Environment Secretary Steve Reed can tell her?

When I say you donβt have to worry about microplastics in your brain I mean that there is much stronger evidence that you should be worrying about other things that you donβt ever think about, like the draining of peatlands for agriculture, and things that you think about all the time, like fascism.
