23% of foster places in England provided by private equity firms.
Biggest firm made £104m operating profit, profit margin 21%.
Some foster parents got just 80p an hour, forced on benefits.
Obscene obsession with privatising everything.
Political system is broken.

Private equity is a horror story for the NHS – one fifth of budget goes to it.
Privatised services treat 10% of patients, 3% in 2011.
59,000 private contracts in the NHS.
30%-40% of money vanishes in profits, longer queues persist.
End privatisation.

Private equity is a horror story for the NHS - yet one fifth of the health service budget goes to it

#Healthcare should be just about that. #Health and nothing to do with profit margins. Once society demands corporate establishments to see us as human, then the world will be better for it.

Challenging 'Parental Rights': A Primer for Parents, Students, Educators, and Advocates
When “parental rights” means banning books and gutting protections for LGBTQ+ kids — and “school choice” means privatization — we need to ask: whose rights, and at whose expense?

Vulture auction of Thames Water.
Covalis offers £1bn to buy TW, flog assets to generate £4bn.
Buyers counting on mega hike in customer bills, asset-stripping.
Sewage dumping, cash extraction will continue.
Only nationalisation can safeguard water services.

The NHS is under attack—not by chance, but by design. Deliberate underfunding and creeping privatisation pave the way for American corporate interests. Our health isn’t a commodity. Fight for the NHS before it’s sold off piece by piece. #SaveOurNHS #NoToPrivatisation
