Thames Water have had a £3bn loan approved. Their debts will now cost them £900m a year in interest, which is where one third of your water bill goes. Yet they managed to pay shareholders £158m in dividends last year. Someone ought to nationalise the greedy fuckers…

Ever wonder why Nigel Farage and his 4 MP's get infinite TV time, while the 5 Green MP's are never seen? It is because one is the establishment, and the other is against them.

If you want to see Michelle Mone kicked out of the House of Lords and arrested until she pays the £232,000,000 she owes give this a RT. If you want Rishi Sunak's involvement in the £14,900,000,000 PPE Fraud he covered up investigated, LIKE.

Noam Chomsky reveals the secrets of Margaret Thatcher's privatisation. Defund it, blame State ownership, privatise for pennies, extort you forever.

My firmest belief is that you can tell everything about a person from the way they interact with service staff. Someone close to me was dealing with posh customers every day years ago, and she said Michelle Mone was the worst person she ever dealt with *by a distance*

Those who follow me know I’ve been calling out lies & challenging misinformation for many years. But even at its worst I’ve never known it this bad. I know many are feeling hopeless right now. But that’s what they want - to wear you down & make you give up. Don’t let them. We can beat this, TOGETHER

This company likes to portray itself as akin to numerous small local brewers. It is, in fact, a giant corporation backed by a US private equity firm.

James Watt Brewdog's CEO is worth £262,000,000 he is refusing to raise the wage of his staff in London by the £1 an hour to keep them at the National Living Wage. Brewdog is apparently a 'nice' company, but wage freezes don't seem very nice. Do they?

The combined net worth of America's twelve wealthiest people passed $2 trillion last year. 12 people. $2 trillion. Meanwhile, U.S. homelessness increased 18% in 2024. Our problem isn’t an issue of resources. Our problem is ever-expanding wealth inequality.

Looks like the price of wind is going up in Scotland come April. Our energy is fixed price to produce. We create more than we can use. Yet we are getting another price hike. Profiteering is a word that should be used more.

UK's regressive tax system. Poorest 10% of households paid 48% of income in tax; richest 10% paid 39%. Poorest 10% paying 12% of income in VAT; richest 10% pay 3%. Council tax: Poorest 10% paying 7%; richest 10% pay 1.2%. No govt plans to end inequity. equalitytrust.org.uk/news/press-r...

Octopus Energy explaining why Scotland should have some of the cheapest energy bills in Europe rather than the highest simply because we don’t control our own energy , it’s crazy #ScottishIndependence octopus.energy/blog/regiona...

‘We’re getting poorer’ says Nigel Farage in his Beth Rigby interview. I agree. The Brexit he championed is on course to cut UK trade by a staggering 15% - a huge reduction in the potential economic performance of the country at a time when every penny counts youtu.be/jvo1JM6xZqQ?...

Thames Water needs £3bn in 8 weeks or it goes bankrupt. It must go bankrupt, it must not get a penny from Government, it must not be allowed to raise bills. It is a private company, and it has private debts. Time go find out what happens when you can’t pay your bills.

This is going to be very hard for the UK Unionist Establishment to rubbish as they will undermine themselves. This is a political open goal for the Scottish Government and the SNP - put it in the net.,

Absolutely go f**k yourself. Autism is not a "get out of jail free card" for being an arsehole. Do you know how hard so many autistic individuals work to fit in, to be treated "normally"? This type of crap makes it harder for all of us. Being autistic doesn't give you a pass to be a predator.

Spot on 😃

Me watching a film. 1. Start watching. 2. Wonder what I’ve seen one of the actors in before. 3. Google actor. 4. Go to IMDb/their Wikipedia page. 5. Find out every single detail of their entire life. 6. Realise I’ve completely missed the plot of the film and now have no idea what’s going on.
