The average UK water & sewerage bill is £396 per year. In England the dividend to privatised water companies is over £2 billion per year: which works out at £85 per English household. So over 21% of an English water bill goes to shareholders! And you get sewerage in the sea.

Why is it, when the Labour Party has outstanding and passionate MPs, like Emma Hardy, that we have wall-to-wall interviews by the BBC of MPs such as Chuka Umunna and John Mann. If working class people were allowed to hear MPs like Emma Hardy, then Labour's support would rocket.

@lisanandy @longy0601 Everybody can see that these unproven allegations from Israel were timed to provide a smokescreen from the ICJ judgement concerning genocide in Gaza. Why are you amplifying this unprincipled propaganda?

@MrJohnNicolson @HackneyAbbott @theSNP @HumzaYousaf Keir Starmer appears to be willing to throw the Black vote in the bin; as he has done with the Muslim vote. The early signs were there when he referred to the BLM protest in Bristol as 'it's just a moment'.

Norman Smith - the BBC's Assistant political editor - has just referred to Rebecca Long Bailey as 'the carry-on Corbyn' candidate: thereby establishing the BBC's line; she will likely be mocked; whilst the other candidates will possibly be presented as having gravitas.

@EmilyThornberry Everyone involved in left politics saw what really happened. We know that antiSemitism was weaponised by the right-wing to undermine Corbyn. Eternal shame on those that know this and remain silent.

@DerbyChrisW Israel tends to do this sort of thing around Christmas or the major bank holidays, presumably because the media coverage will be less. Having said that, zero main-stream media coverage might be better than the biased reporting we get.
