Why were water companies allowed to pay out £78bn in dividends since 1991 and rack up £60 billion in debt at the same time? And now they are increasing our bills to pay for "infrastructure updates". This is crony capitalism at its worse. Sign the petition if you agree. https://38d.gs/ra4v
Reeves claimed £4,400 in energy support before axing winter fuel payment "Chancellor and Labour MPs used over £400,000 of taxpayer cash to heat their homes" https://www.telegraph.co.uk/money/rachel-reeves-claim-thousands-energy-support-winter-fuel/ All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others.
Lol, so now Starmer's Stasi are going after the person or persons that 'leaked' the CCTV footage. Those in power, who are claiming they want to crack down on misinformation, did not want the truth to come out. They wanted us to be misinformed. ...
Public sector pay rises are going to cost ~£9bn whilst Ed Miliband's overseas climate aid is £11.6bn. A combined total of ~£20.6bn. And there is, coincidentally, a £20bn budgetary black hole. The proposed cuts to pensioners' winter fuel payments will save about £1.4bn. But it's trivial in the grand scheme of total yearly government spending of around £1200bn and total government debt ...
Pleaded not guilty. Trial set for January next year. No speedy trials for the left. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cgrj75yx2q0o I never understood why anyone would plead guilty anyway. You can't give offence, it can only be taken. Similarly with incitement. Lots of things are said figuratively. I can only assume they were naive of the law, threatened with even lengthier sentences, ...
When the town gets flooded, the council will blame it on climate change. Nice clear photos @BOO HOO . Documenting these issues will hopefully help hold councils accountable.
@Carer , yes it was, and it shows the contempt politicians have for us voters.
Labour councillor Ricky Jones’s 'pre-trial preparation hearing' tomorrow. It will be fun to see how long they can drag this out for and still claim there is no 2-tier justice going on under our new socialist government.
They could ban the French from fishing in our waters until they sort it out. The UK govt has had plenty of leverage over the years, but they have no intention of fixing it because it is by design. They don't work for us, remember. They lie to get our votes and that's about it.
My parents would say if someone told you to jump off a cliff, would you do it? People are responsible for their own actions regardless of what they may have heard others say. No one should be imprisoned for saying something no matter how many people take offence to it or are insulted or incited by it. It's absurd and goes against the fundamental values that all free societies should uphold.
