The second-most waterways in Europe with unacceptable levels of E. coli?
Because this is what we are. This is what consecutive Governments are fine with us being.
The people of Britain deserve better.
Public ownership is the only option.
Compass has been urging the Government to end the two-child benefit limit for some time.
Taxing the betting industry offers Labour a clear way to start tackling the scourge of child poverty. It's time for action.

Foxes are being brutalised in the name of "sport" despite the majority of us opposing it.
Share if you think we should protect foxes and ban hunting once and for all!

Highlighting, again, Reform hypocrisy. This time around Law & Order. Short but informative listen.
โ๏ธSteve Reed has just been caught in a ยฃ22bn lie.
He claimed he had secure ยฃ104bn in โprivate investmentโ for water upgrades - funded by a 36% hike in our bills.
An FOI revealed ยฃ22bn of those bill hikes will go to shareholders & creditors.
We need public ownership.

Amazed it took 40 years to reach this conclusion. It was obvious in the 80s, if you bothered to look.
Thatcher used the working-classes' own money to bribe them into voting to destroy their futures, and the Tories have been worshipping her for it ever since.

โThe traditional foundations of Conservative and Labour politics are not there.โ
At this weekโs webinar, Prof Sir John Curtice brilliantly explained why the two-party system is breaking down like never before.
Electorally, he argued, โwe are in a different world.โ
The voting system must catch up.
Tommy Robinson is on the run. Again. ๐
But, this is nothing new. Lennon has a long history of fleeing justice, ducking accountability, and doing it all from the comfort of poolside loungers.
Letโs look at the postcard trail of this grifter extraordinaire ๐
If you want to see Michelle Mone kicked out of the House of Lords and arrested until she pays the ยฃ232,000,000 she owes give this a RT.
If you want Rishi Sunak's involvement in the ยฃ14,900,000,000 PPE Fraud he covered up investigated, LIKE.
The Tories want to BAN doctors from striking now.
No wonder they're polling at record lows.
Workers' rights in the workplace need protected now more than ever.
So much of political discourse seems resigned to idea that there's nothing the UK can do anymore.
"NHS can't be fixed."
"Green policies are impossible."
"Living standards can't rise."
Well, sod that! I'm not ready to give up on the UK just yet.
I believe Zack isn't giving up on the UK either ๐

Politicians bask in deregulation and housing targets, developers count profits.
Many houses also beyond the reach of average person.
Theyโre not reducing pollution โ theyโre redefining it.
The Environment Agencyโs own rules mean most sewage dumps donโt count.
This isnโt regulation. Itโs cover up. ๐ฉ

Some great discussions to help you decide to join The Green Party and support Zack if you do so by the end on the July. I did this week. #BackZack

โฌ๏ธ Reform UKโs anti-environmental policies would cumulatively deprive the economy of ยฃ67-ยฃ92bn in GVA. In todayโs figures, that is almost 3% of the UKโs entire GDP.
Clearly Farage isn't content with the 4% hit he inflicted on the country through Brexit...
๐ค"Former GB News presenter Darren Grimes, has proposed a motion to rescind a declaration of a climate emergency, a UK first."
Reform are pushing a brand of anti-intellectual populism - fostering distrust in science and deepening divides within politics.
So weโve still work to get this petition to 10k. The undue prominence of one party has to stop & we must hear from other parties. If the broadcast media isnโt truly exploring the rich variety of whatโs out there as messenger then democracy is dead. Sign&pass on petition.parliament.uk/petitions/71...

What the Government announced this week was effectively a rebranding of the Committee on Standards in Public Life.
This isnโt time for a rebranding, we need a complete reset in how standards are upheld in Westminster. Thatโs the only way we can restore trust in our politics.

The People's Plan for Water is the clearest way way to save the industry.
Public ownership. Workers, citizens and communities on water boards. Polluters paying for the mess they've caused.
The arguments against are drying up.
