MPs call for emergency legislation for public control of Thames Water, let govt restore it and resell.

Hedge funds want to takeover TW, want exemption from penalties for breaking laws.

Neither will do.

Profit motive is the cause of the crisis.

Need public ownership.

Nigel Jenney, Chief Executive of the Fresh Produce Consortium (FPC): “Our world-leading border is currently the most expensive and least efficient globally. This is a self-imposed crisis creating huge distress and significant additional costs that ultimately consumers must shoulder.”

I am perhaps slightly biased in these matters as EFRA Chair - but what could be more fundamental than the food you eat, the water you drink and the air you breathe?
We should probably start treating DEFRA like a important department we focus on and properly resource, rather than as a late one to fill after the big posts have been handed out.
And again, climate emergency needs attention!

Just finished this excellent book by @rosatkins.bsky.social. Probably should have read it before giving evidence at the EFRA select committee... (every day's a school day!)

“Defra has no effective system of oversight for [biosecurity] border controls”, which is “not simply an operational concern but continues to present real threats to the health of UK animals and plants and therefore the viability of our sector”

Sigh!! 🙄

The water sector is failing.

Yesterday, @amcarmichaelmp.bsky.social‬ and EFRA committee published their sector reform report.

It encourages new ownership models. Lib Dems continue to call for them to be public benefit companies. The govt should listen.

someone from Thames Water being quizzed by the "EFRA" committee is excellent nominative determinism.

Thames Water – the shit show that keeps getting shittier. 💩 💦

'Alistair Carmichael said the creditors were operating in an opaque way, seeking relief from environmental penalties and dragging out negotiations while reaping millions of pounds in debt interest.'

Anda mira, el título del fanzine de Efra es justito la frase que le dije a mi terapeuta en nuestra primera sesión.
Por primera vez en un salón del Cómic Barcelona, mi fanzine más personal. Donde explico cómo traté mi ansiedad cuando empecé a dibujar el cómic que estoy haciendo.
Estoy recibiendo muy buen feedback de él, sobretodo de artistes del comiqueo y fanzineo.

Last week I joined the EFRA Committee in Cumbria, investigating sewage pollution in Lake Windermere and hearing from farmers at the Westmorland Show as Bluetongue continues to spread. I’ll keep fighting alongside Alistair Carmichael and Tim Farron for farmers and cleaner rivers.
