Thames Water shares are almost worthless.

Its bonds price has collapsed.

Most assets (pipes, reservoirs) have no alternative use, would fetch little in fire sale.

It wants 40% price rise, more profiteering.

End the abuses. Nationalise now at low cost.

England's water companies paid no corporation tax in 2022-23; paid £1bn in dividends.

In 2021/2022, only one paid corp tax.

OFWAT does nothing.

Water bills in England to rise above inflation in April.

Companies dump sewage, don't plug leaks, don't invest, pay exorbitant dividends.

3 million Britons living abroad for more than 15 years can now vote all UK elections.

Someone not living in your area and not affected by local services will cast decisive vote.

The change also enables Tories to collect mega donations from tax exiles.

Anti-vax people are trying to blame Derek Draper's sad death on vaccines. DD got ill at the same time as me and was in the same intensive care ward as me. It was all before the Covid vaccine was invented: March 2020.

£206bn student debt is one example of how what was once public debt has been shifted to households.

People's s spending power depleted, skills shortages endemic.

Most EU countries don't charge university fees to locals.

Has your income doubled? Energy company profits have more than trebled.

Govt cuts real wages, no curbs on profiteering.
