Picture of pub by a river with a footbridge running across it. Below the headline reads: Southern Water applies for permission to draw water from rare chalk stream Environment secretary urged to stop drought order that could damage the ecology of River Test in Hampshire

Not a single new reservoir built in England for 30 years. ❌

3 billion litres of water lost from leaking pipes every day. ❌

When liebour was last in control of Scotland we had ten of the most deprived areas in the country.

"Tenants were charged £2k to repaint the house - the pictures show cobwebs and some spiders."

Homelessness Minister, Rushanara Ali, is under fire for evicting tenants before hiking the rent by £700, which new laws may soon ban.

Wes Streeting’s donations are 80% related to private healthcare providers

As a GP, I am not allowed to receive a pen or post-it note pad from a pharmaceutical company rep!

Govt banned them in case I was influenced to prescribe medications.

This should also be banned?

Influence being bought in Govt?

Patients should influence not the healthy & wealthy

🗣️ 'The volume and amount of donations involved show just how much influence these shadowy think tanks and hedge funds have within the Labour Party'

BREAKING: Sir Keir Starmer has explained Rushanara Ali has not been sacked from her role as Homeless Minister after making four people homeless because it's not like she did something really bad like vote against benefits cuts for children x

SCOTLAND - OUR LAND? A guest post by Kyle RentonThe Isle of Rona has been sold.The last two people living on the island - off the coast of Skye - are preparing to leave. The new owners? Daniel Luhde-Thompson, a hedge fund manager, based in England, and Cressida Pollock, a high-level financial consultant and former CEO of the English National Opera. The deal was done quietly, through a company called Fior Rona Ltd. The old owners? A Danish couple by the names of Dorte and Arne Jensen.Another island gone. Another comm

'This is how it happens: slowly, silently, legally. One island at a time. One estate at a time. One shell company at a time. Until Scotland becomes a patchwork of private retreats, corporate playgrounds, and sealed-off havens for the rich.'
