Bloody hell #Ofwat! Spending millions to get accountants to do *your* job now? Of all the Tories' grotesque failures, water privatisation must be one of the worst. It's time to stop enriching the already wealthy. Renationalise water, without compensation! share.google/C5Ri3DX2WxvG...

Leader of party - that sold its own shrivelled soul to the devils of austerity and Brexit - will use her conference speech to slag off Labour (yawn) and make the only promise the Tories ever make - cutting taxes… They have nothing new or credible… or just plain nice… to say any more.

I visited our GP practice today, to see the appropriate specialist nurse (I have diabetes and CKD). I was listened sympathetically, prescribed new meds, and given advice and a follow-up appointment. So this is just a simple thank you to the ghost of Aneurin Bevan, and to our wonderful, unique #NHS!

If it wasn't for Zack Polanski Wes Streeting would probably be Prime Minister. But either way, if you believe in even vaguely left wing policies, it makes sense to keep up pressure from the left. Burnham will certainly be getting pressure from the right wing media, Reform and billionaires lobbyists.

How do you work that one out? Labour is doing what they can to improve pensioner income by using any savings from triple lock change to boost income for those with reduced pension.

Burnham edges Labour closer to finally, maybe, being sane about Brexit. Over 10 years, £Billions of cost, thousands of business failures, mountains of red tape, wasted resources and lost opportunities later…. our govt may, at last, cautiously, start to be honest about the Brexit moronathon. Yay.
The Independent front page headline: 

Burnham edges Labour closer to rejoining EU
After Ed Miliband tells party conference Britain's future is at the heart of Europe, ministers say it is 'not if but how' prime minister will include Brexit reversal in next election manifestoThere is growing optimism that a way back into the EU could be put to voters at the next election after the prime minister and senior ministers made it clear they believe Brexit has been a failure at this year's party conference.
When The Independent asked Mr Burnham about whether Rejoin would be in Labour's next election manifesto on his recent trip to the UN in New York, he refused to rule it out - having said a year ago when he was
Manchester mayor that he believes the
UK should rejoin the EU.

Andy Burnham has already warned about the 'drift and division' in the decade since Brexit (Getty)

Andy Burnha m, PM, has just made an electric speech at the Labour Party conference. A world beater. So the racist party Reform Ltd have decided to.start their attack early by lying that Labour plans will reduce old age pensions. Lie!! Lying is a Reform disease, worried about their unpopularity.

Dumpy is a fascist loser and we only have more oppressive and repressive behavior to come from him. He will never change and he needs to be shown the door in every way possible after the midterms. It will be a long and hard effort to undo all the damage he has done, but it will be a strong priority.

Denying Nazism while embracing it is just gaslighting to avoid the social stigma attached to it. They think we're stupid, but don't realize that we clearly see them. 👀
