RT by @CarolineLucas: 10 years after the Govt sold off @RoyalMail (losing us £750 million in 1 day when shares were undervalued) it has been run into the ground. In #Brighton 48% of letters arrive late, assets are neglected and posties undervalued. #privatisationfail #weownit https://www.theguardian.com/business/article/2024/may/28/royal-mail-shareholders-braced-for-final-takeover-offers

RT by @CarolineLucas: PFI was a failure that still costs public service budgets dearly. And Labour’s NHS plans are full of MORE creeping privatisation.
In Brighton, concern for the future of the #NHS is huge. People here don’t want a Labour govt without Green MPs to defend it. #privatisationfail

I asked

to put a 2018 gastro issues report in the public domain & they refused. I've pushed for details of improvement plans for months. Frontline staff delivering care are incredible. Resistance to scrutiny stems from the top & needs to change

So looks like Sunak has messed up the one thing that could’ve been a genuinely positive legacy - action on 🚬 because he didn’t check the timings/procedures properly- the lack of planning skills not just limited to umbrellas then ☔️

Hi

aka John Woodcock, wonder if you've seen this from Home Office Minister Tugendhat? Will you amend your "independent" report to include details of your lobbying links to companies that would benefit from curbs to protesting, including fossil fuel companies?

Westminster may be gripped by election fever now, but in other news tomorrow Ofwat will be deciding if greedy & failing water companies can hike bills by up to 91%. I joined nearly 40 MPs across parties calling on Ofwat to reject their outrageous demand.
