Apparently one UK company made roughly £14.3 million per day or about £600000 an hour over the last 3 years after paying tax.

Yorkshire Water CEO to leave after the lowest rating by the Environment Agency.
Attention diverting gesture.
YW will still dump sewage, lose water to leaks, fleece customers.
No exec will be prosecuted, licence won't be revoked.
Need real change.

I need to understand why it is always the least well off that are targeted to bail out the UK.
We have billionaires dodging taxes, MPs claiming outrageous expenses and covid fraud that reads like a triple Power Ball rollover.
Why not target these disgraces.

Poundland, owned by US private equity firm Gordon Brothers, on brink of administration. 12,000 jobs at risk.
Gordon Brothers rejected a management-backed rescue bid. Probably thinks it can raise more from a breakup.
Destruction of town centres continues.

It's shocking to see 'low-wage care workers' portrayed as a drain on the welfare state. They're doing essential jobs and the only reason they claim benefits is that the fat cat private equity bosses that own care homes don't pay them enough to live on.

Given the corruption uncovered by the Covid Inquiry and now the names of the PPE facilitators tell me how these people walk freely amongst us. Enjoying the benefits they stole from tax payers. When will we put a stop to this?

The Iran war has given BP its highest profits in 18 years.
It has cost US households $2,000, and UK households £2,400.
Fossil capitalism is based on a systematic transfer of wealth from workers to fossil capitalists.

🔴KEMI BADENOCH: Housing Benefit
'Taxpayers foot the £2,700 a month rent on @KemiBadenoch's six-bedroom farmhouse in Essex.
Then she goes on telly and argues that taxpayers shouldn't subsidise other people's rent.'

I’d like to mention Mrs Thatcher warning about man-made climate change being a threat as big as nuclear war, not because I’m a fan of Mrs Thatcher, I can’t stand her, but I think it’s important that people on the right understand that climate change is not a left-wing conspiracy even though the fossil fuel propaganda says exactly that

The BBC says they give Reform wall-to-wall coverage ‘because of their position in opinion polls’.
Presumably they’ll now very significantly reduce the platforming given that Reform is tanking in the polls? I hope Zia Yusuf hasn’t been booked too far ahead for Question Time?

Margaret Thatcher replaced Domestic Rates with Council Tax.
Under Domestic Rates if your house was worth 100x the average you paid 100x the average.
Under Council Tax it is capped at 3x, so people in Castle's pay little more than you.
Tax the rich, bring back Domestic Rates.

What time is Chris Mason investigating why the BBC continue to give Reform and Farage disproportionate coverage despite them crashing down the polls?

In 2011, rioters went to prison for nicking stuff from Poundland. In 2026, private equity has made millions by asset-stripping the entire business.

Andy Burnham has said that billpayers must not be treated like blank cheques for water companies.
Yet if he allows this eye-watering £2.4 billion Thames Water bailout to go ahead, he would be doing just that.
Yesterday, we handed in a petition signed by over 27,000 people calling on Burnham to Block the Bailout.
Failing water companies don't deserve any more of our money. Let them go bust!

Clement Attlee founded the NHS, built record numbers of council houses, nationalised Housing, Power, Rail, Energy, Steel, Fossil Fuel and employed more than 2m people in 5 years all with the greatest debt the UK had ever had.
And the economy boomed and debt fell.

Yusuf isn’t an MP but is treated like one on this programme - I’ve never known anything like it!
Genuine question - can anyone in their lifetime, remember any political party with 8 seats in parliament being given the media/airtime that these grifters are given? #BBCQT

Spot on from Darren Jones, Labour MP for Bristol North West.
76% of us want to see Royal Mail in public hands.
Privatised Royal Mail is a dismal failure. Stamp prices go up while reliability goes down.
And now they want to cut 2,500 backroom jobs by the end of next year.
TAKE IT BACK.
