Southern Water boss says people need to use less in the future Tim Mcmahon was speaking to BBC South Today on a special programme about water use.

Southern Water boss says people need to use less water

The only industry that charges people more for selling less.

Everyday story of England's water companies - Leaks unplugged, no new reservoirs, sewage dumped, mega dividends, customers fleeced.

Nationalise.

โ€˜Silicon Sixโ€™ accused of avoiding almost $278bn in US corporation taxes over 10 years Analysis finds Amazon, Meta, Alphabet, Netflix, Apple and Microsoft averaged 18.8%, compared with 29.7% US average

Amazon, Meta, Alphabet, Netflix, Apple, Microsoft dodged $278bn US corporation taxes over 10 years.

Paid 18.8%, compared with 29.7% US average. Profits shifted to low/no tax jurisdictions.

Same companies operate in the UK, dodge taxes, create social squalor. Force companies to publish tax returns.

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraineโ€™s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

And not even available on Eurosport any more ๐Ÿ˜ก. Cycling really has shot itself in the foot over tv coverage. Mind you if Poj' is in the field it'll turn into a boring procession anyway.

Summed it up very well, Johnson back is a big plus. His goals are so important in a squad that doesn't have a prolific scorer.

Donald Trump was tested and was not infected by the Corona virus.

Experts from the Robert Koch Institute are not surprised.
The virus has been shown
to affect lungs, not assholes.
