If the vast majority of the press wasn’t up to its neck in the same muck it would pointing out how ludicrous it is for Britain’s most dishonest politician to call someone a liar, they won’t, they’ll attack Burnham, there’s not even a semblance of national interest over money now, media is broken

Note the measures that must be taken all relate to individuals: —"Households need to respond beforehand – they need to be proactive not reactive” —"hosepipe bans... likely to stay in place for the foreseeable future" At no point are water companies required to do anything. #Renationalise water

“Tom Watson has taken a job lobbying for Palantir. Revolving doors. They really are a problem in British politics.” Natalie Bennett criticises the links between politicians and powerful corporations, and Watson’s comments about “mob rule" deciding government contracts.

LET THEM GO BUST ! Last year, Thames Water took out a £3bn loan - at 9.75% interest. And now they want another £2.4bn to keep going?! ENOUGH. If water companies can't survive without rip-off loans, they should be declared insolvent and brought into public hands through special administration.
Screenshot from The Daily Telegraph, 2nd October 2026: "Thames Water seeks £2.4bn lifeline after rescue plan stalls Troubled utility risks more financial turmoil if its army of hedge fund backers do not provide emergency cash", above a graphic of the Thames Water logo swirling down a drain.

That’s not to say I want the pension to decrease/diminish, I just want all ages and situations to be treated as a valid national concern, not just one age group. The younger generation is struggling and I’m sick of it not getting a fraction of the airtime that the state pension does.
