Sewage in the rivers. Companies drowning in debt. Billions siphoned in profits.

Privatised water has failed us.

I’m backing @labourlewis.bsky.social’s call to ensure Andy Burnham meets water campaigners who’ve fought for years to clean up our water -not just the water bosses who’ve profited from the system.

It has been ten years since Jo Cox MP was murdered by a far-right extremist while serving her constituents in Batley and Spen.

Today, we pause to remember Jo and her belief that “we have more in common than that which divides us”.

King Charles is set to meet Trump next month to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the US.

Trump is conducting an illegal war on Iran – the King’s visit would serve as a statement of support for this illegal war.

It must not go ahead.

Should Keir Starmer send the King to honour Trump with a state visit?

Absolutely not.

Time to stop appeasing the President who is causing so much harm to the world.

🤯60% of Wes Streeting's donors are from private health.

Good to see your texts with Mandelson. The public also has a right to know if health policy is being driven by unaccountable lobbying

Wes Streeting, release your messages with private healthcare. weownit.org.uk/news/wes-str...

Our national parks are under threat.

The Treasury wants to weaken the laws that protect areas like Dartmoor and the Lake District by opening them up to bulldozers and roads!

Right now, Ministers are debating the plans, but no decision has been made yet. That means we still have time to stop it.
