Water companies were debt free when privatised. Collectively they now have over £60 billion of debt and have paid out about the same in dividends. But when they are told to sort out big problems, they say they can't afford to. How has this been allowed to happen?

I see the IEA has reclaimed its regular spot on the BBC. Let’s appreciate what this actually means. Opaquely funded anti-state lobbying groups are being given a major platform by our national broadcaster - months after they helped to crash the economy.

Wanna know why the Tories are so terrified of Angela Rayner? If she’s allowed to get her message across — without interference or smears — voters who grew up as she did, will see them for the scum they are, and will never vote Tory ever again. The terror is justified.
The main question about the Oxford/Cambridge boat race is NOT wether they should follow tradition and throw the winning Cox into the filthy Thames water, it’s when we’re going to STOP focussing so much TV coverage over this nonsense race that means absolutely nothing to anyone.
