You can choose not to eat in wetherspoons if you don't want to.
You can't choose a different water supplier if you don't want to shell out hundreds of pounds for them to dump raw sewage in rivers while handing billions over to shareholders.

Ooh.
Cannot recommend this highly enough. Not least as a corrective to the absolute balderdash published by the Telegraph & others.

I have seen a lot of "news" stories about the current California fires as natural disasters. Southern California ecosystems are fire prone, but this event is a direct result climate change and management neglect. We need to change how we view these events, and the press is not helping.
Well that was a strange, messy game. Ipswich as difficult to play against as expected, & a bizarre ref performance, but we also just could not create anything clear-cut. Thank you to Raúl’s assuredness from the spot for saving us from a complete letdown. Onward!
