I dabble in IT and follow Arsenal F.C. Occasionally UK and world politics cross my path and I voice my concerns. Oil and gas kill people in wars, I'm doing my best to be less reliant on it.

Sign the petition. Let water companies go bust. Ofwat approved 36% bill increases for 2025-2030, companies want more. Prices doubled - in real terms - since privatisation. We got sewage in rivers, water outages, hosepipe bans. Need public ownership.

Energy portfolios of 20 private equity firms produce 1.5bn tons of greenhouse gases a year, more than the annual emissions of any country except China, the US, India and Russia. Companies don't bear the social cost of profits. It is dumped on the people. Killing us and the planet.

First Canada wanted closer EU ties. Now Australia does too. Meanwhile, Starmer spent two years trying to “make Brexit work”, while Burnham remains boxed in by red lines. Farage once said even Brexit’s worst-case scenario would leave us better off. How wrong he was. Still, £5m buys a few Ferraris

As I board the ferry from Tallinn to Helsinki, I’m reminded yet again of three things about the EU: 1) You don’t sacrifice any of your national identity or culture by being part of the EU. Estonia remains Estonia. Finland remains Finland 2) Schengen is great. 3) Brexit was and is shit.

After the previous state pension age rise from 65 to 66, poverty among 65-year-olds doubled, according to the Work & Pensions Committee. Yet the Govt did not commission an up-to-date assessment before the latest increase began. Is this policy being introduced without considering its losers?
