No matter where you live in this country your water company is failing you. From service delivery to ownership we have a unique opportunity to rethink and get this right. We need a UK-wide citizens assembly to explore / consider our options and recommend a fit-for-future system.

I stopped paying my water bill 10 months ago, thousands are doing the same.
Private water companies in England are polluting our seas and rivers, people have said enough.

Very emotional day, because an asylum seeker could no longer cope with life inside the Bibby Stockholm barge / prison ship.
This must signal an end to inhumane government policy. It has no place in a civil society.

Amazing to hear the stories of the 5 others who took life changing action.
How do people decide to transition from emission-intensive fields, like oil and gas, to clean jobs in fields like solar and wind?
For this week's episode, Climate One spoke with six people who changed jobs due to the climate crisis to learn more. link.chtbl.com/19yCVX_C?sid=…

Today I can share I'm challenging the PM on the legality of abandoning key Net Zero commitments
I believe the timeline for the UK to meet Net Zero cannot be changed at will by the PM – I contend that he does not have the legal right
The ball is in your court , Prime Minister
Louis McKechnie, is my hero
He’s sacrificed his youth & freedom, he’s taken on the system #bigoil , fighting for a liveable future for everyone's children.
If you can't take action, support those that can

Sickening to see justice granted now torn away, No limit to harms created by oil giants Shell and TotalEnergies, in their pursuit of the fantasy that is carbon credits.
NEW: A tribe in Peru we revealed were almost certainly the ancestral owners of a rainforest that got converted into a huge carbon credit project won a famous court victory over the land. Until it was annulled in a move described as “not normal at all"... apnews.com/article/peru-cord…
Shell have spent decades exploiting the shit out of the Delta, now walking away from the Armageddon they have created. ‘Go to hell Shell’ is entirely fair given their evil actions and unwillingness to acknowledge their sins, show remorse or repent.
