Does anyone else EVER wonder how some leaders EVER get voted in? When they are, automatically become immune to laws WE have to abide to???GOOD LORD, if we did a tiny fraction of corruption Tories did we would be banged up. WHY does society SIMPLY ACCEPT THIS WAY OF THINGS??

βAll donations that originate from abroad, no matter who is the final donor, should be banned. Only UK citizens should be allowed to donate to British political organisations. This would, by necessity mean no donations from private companies; PLCs, LTDs, whatever.β

I lost my hearing after COVID in march '23. I had superb hearing until then. My audiologist said they're learning more about the correlation between hearing loss & covid as time passes. I wear hearing aids now.

Frank Ruschitzka told his pathologist to be ready before the first COVID-19 patient died. In early March, Ruschitzka, who leads the cardiology department at University Hospital ZΓΌrich, noticed that patients with the disease had strange symptoms for what was then thought to be chiefly a respiratory infection. Many patients had acute kidney failure, organ damage, and mysterious blood clots. Several weeks later, the first body was autopsied: Tiny clots and dead cells littered the capillaries of the lungs, and inflammation had distended blood vessels supplying every organ in the body.
The pathologist had never seen anything like it. But the results showed Ruschitzka why his patients were suffering so much: The virus had targeted their blood vessels.
What people think Covid is:
A bad cold that sometimes causes the elderly or vulnerable to die.
What Covid actually is:
A SARS pathogen that causes vascular damage (even in mild cases) resulting in health issues, either now or in the future, regardless of age or health status.

Future historians will look back on water privatisation as being one of the biggest con tricks ever carried out. Shareholders (mostly overseas) and executives have enriched themselves, while infrastructure has deteriorated and the consumer has suffered a declining service. Please tell me I'm wrong!

Water companies fined just Β£2 for rule breaking despite record sewage
Ofwat has been accused of not acting quickly enough to issue fines against water companies for sewage dumping
England's water companies fined just Β£2 since 2021 for breaching regulations.
OFWAT says it agreed compensation and investment in lieu of fines.
So no penalties for dumping sewage, causing health hazards, destroying marine life & biodiversity; to boost profits, exec pay, dividends
