"It’s time to pull the plug at Thames Water," says former investment banker at Credit Suisse First Boston. "The board has failed to deliver — bring in the Special Administrators."
Everyone else gets it, how come @Ofwat don't? 🤔

🧵 The Official Opposition previously held 70-74% of opposition seats following recent general elections. Now the Conservative Party holds just 53%. As it's smaller than its predecessors should its rights and responsibilities as the Official Opposition be adjusted accordingly? 1/

😣 Prospect of a life in pink and purple is surely by a country mile the worst thing about going independent. Need to locate this level chutzpah.

I wrote to my ex MP when he was still an MP and got nothing back ☹️
It’s time to start a new page for #WASPI women. We’ve come so far and are close to achieving compensation for the lack of notice about the increases to our State Pension age. However, there is more work to do. Write to your MP - there’s help here: waspi.co.uk/write-to-your-mp…

I wish you huge luck in improving our prisons.

Drive to work x Reform vote share. Does public transport make you woke, or do I need a nap?
& only two left in Cambridgeshire plus Peterborough, which is the @CambsPboroCA area. Badmouthing humanities, vicious cuts, indebting home & hostility to overseas students are all guaranteed to lose votes near academia & not just @UniofOxford & @Cambridge_Uni either.

One thing I'd do if I were PM, would be to rectify this and all similar injustices, where successive UK governments have failed to implement their own laws. I don't like and voters don't like #hypocrisy and saving money by depriving vulnerable groups is worthy only of #contempt
Successive Govts have steadfastly refused to implement #CEDAW into domestic law despite ratification in 1986. Had #CEDAW been implemented, the drastic changes to #pensions policies of recent years would have to have been #gendersensitive
Time for a #WomensBillOfRights ♀️

If I hadn't seen the things @paulwaugh describes (at 8:15) also happening here with my own eyes, I'd have struggled to believe a word of his account. fionaradic.wordpress.com/202…

Andy Coles was defeated in awesome fashion by the city's youngest candidate in last May's local elections. In May, she had yet to complete her A levels. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c136…

Peterborough has not had an outstanding constituency MP since Brian Mawhinney (CON) departed Peterborough Borough for the then much safer seat of North West Cambridgeshire. fionaradic.wordpress.com/202…

I am trying to get my voice heard, I have written to my MP Rishi Sunak, His reply was unsatisfactory and now I get no response.
Due to the government’s cruel new financial requirements for a U.K. spouse visa I will have to leave the U.K. I am a British citizen Anna is not. Anna and I have been together 8 years. Married.
I am self employed, I own my house outright. Anna is a university graduate, freelance illustrator, speaks 3 languages.
I don’t meet the new U.K. financial requirements. I visit Anna several times a year, so when I’m not working I am not earning. I also live in the north of England, wages are lower than London. We are tied up in the governments game to get the numbers down.
If I was above the £29,000 but had a mortgage or rent to pay of £10,000 per year then that would be fine.
I don’t have mortgage or rent and still I can’t live with Anna in the U.K.
Why? What is the U.K. government so afraid of?
Thank you for taking the time to read this.

National polling sites use national data to advice locals how to vote to beat the Tories - fair enough.
IOW East has conducted its own primary with over 800 locals and selected Greens.
Each local poll says Greens.
Please ignore the national sites, local data is better.
Fiona Radic retweeted
There is no previous polling data for IOW East as it is new.
Over 800 local tactical voters reviewed candidates and voted overwhelmingly to back @VixL and @TheGreenParty as the tactical vote.
The only two local polls show Greens and Tories neck and neck.
IOW East vote Green
