The gravy train continues.
Failed former CEO of Ofwat, David Black has reappeared at a consultancy company called BRG where he will "Advise firms and investors across regulated industries as they navigate shifting regulatory frameworks".
His boss? No less than former head of regulation at Thames Water one Colm Gibson.
As @PrivateEyeNews would say "Trebles all round". Well actually that's exactly what they did say. 👇👇👇

So, @bbclaurak, not a single question for Robert Jenrick about Mr Farage's relationship with Mr Harborne, then?
Or his suspicious disapperance from public scrutiny by the media?
Or Jenrick's own dodgy finances?
BBC scrutiny of the powerful without fear or favour?
I think not.

He's taken a wrecking ball to our NHS. Substituting Drs for PAs/ACPs/ANPs, who haven't studied medicine. On Drs rotas & ensconced in GP surgeries, while axing 1000 Drs training places. He's sold our data to a spy firm.Streeting's gravy train. @RichardBurgon @labourlewis @KeeleyMP
We have been told that the NHS is in recovery mode under Wes Streeting's leadership. It really is not true.
Two-thirds of NHS staff believe shortage of nurses is endangering patients, survey shows

Wes Streeting prepared to resign and launch leadership bid.
After days of denials Streeting wants to push for quick coronation.
That won't do. He is a corporate stooge, already privatizing parts of the NHS.
Silence on policies.
We need a proper contest

As an NHS doctor I feel nothing but relief seeing Streeting’s resignation
His legacy will be selling the NHS down the river for private profits
For targeting doctors opposing a genocide
All this & he walks away scot-free - with ZERO accountability for the damage he has caused
richard riley retweeted
As Health Secretary, Wes Streeting deepened the privatisation of our NHS and handed over our data to Palantir, a company involved in genocide.
I am sure his friend Peter Mandelson is very proud.
Time to reinstate our NHS as a fully public service — and kick Palantir out!

The Health Secretary overseeing the biggest reorganisation of the NHS in a generation has accepted £372,000 from companies and individuals with links to the private health – and the money keeps coming in at a rate of nearly £10,000 a month since he took office.
richard riley retweeted
Can we now have a Health Secretary who is not bought and paid for by private health care providers, who knows the unique value of doctors, and is willing to work with @theBMA?
@Keir_Starmer
richard riley retweeted
Wes Streeting had a once in a lifetime chance to reinstate the NHS as a FULLY PUBLIC SERVICE
He squandered it, continuing with privatisation
£1.6 billion was wasted on profits in the last 2 years according to @CHPIthinktank - enough to pay for 9,178 doctors or 19,428 nurses
