Carbon emissions from just two planned datacentres in England will exceed all of ExxonMobil’s UK fossil fuel emissions. Bad for health, environment. Huge pressure on energy/water supplies Few long-term jobs generated Local people, not ministers, must decide if they want datacentres.

England water companies want dynamic pricing. Charge more for drinking water, cleaning, showering, flushing toilet during drought. Health epidemics would follow. They lose over a trillion litres a year to leaks; paid dividends, neglected investment. Putting profits before people archive.ph/9oSCf

So, a joke MP with 5 houses bought for cash, links to criminality and a £5Mill ‘gift’ in his bank… is so enraged at being held to account… that he resigns from the MP role he never did anyway…and demands a “people v the establishment” by-election to vote him back in. What an insufferable wanker.

Until then, we will stay stuck in this populist dead end, loudly blowing our dog whistle at the world and wondering why nothing works.
