As much as I’m not a fan of Labour, John Healy for chancellor is a damn sight better than Dead Millipede. Healy is a man who recently demonstrated his principles by resigning over the lack of funding for the armed forces.

Milliband is now foreign secretary- shouldn’t take him long to piss off a foreign head of state and resign, which hopefully is Burnham’s plan.

I approve of keeping Mahmood as Home Secretary too.

10000%.

Everyone including me was hopeful that Starmer could just be the boring old ‘headmaster’ type leader to steady the ship after the chaos of the Tories. Look how that turned out.

I’m not happy that Rayner has gone back to housing. Regardless of whether an investigation ‘cleared’ her of wrongdoing it’s not a good look for a politician to blatantly avoid in the past the taxes she forces others to pay as a minister for something.

Vat to zero on electricity will cost a lot more than I think they have considered. I foresee a big uptick in people charging cars at home.

Hmm he should have given her the boot...not a great look but shows her influence and a local "mate"

Meh...5% can't see that having much affect.

What we need is stability and fast!

When Margaret Thatcher made England and Wales the only countries in the world with fully privatised water, the naysayers argued it was a terrible idea. Today, everyone agrees privatisation has been a roaring success.

It has delivered an impressive rise in customer bills which has coincided with an equally impressive rise in shareholder profits. These improvements were delivered through efficiency savings, such as not building any reservoirs since 1992 and forgetting about silly ideas like sewage treatment. Thanks to neoliberalism, turds are now a common sight at our beaches and marine life is not.

If that wasn’t impressive enough, the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs has confirmed the UK is officially the world’s dampest desert. Three-quarters of the nation has been plunged into drought, despite the fact it constantly pisses down. You are therefore banned from gardening and bathing your children so that data centres don’t go without.

No one knows why countries that contain actual deserts don’t experience the same difficulties we do. For example, Saudi Arabia doesn’t have a hose pipe ban. Unfortunately, we live in a place where the weather breaks everything. Sunshine? Drought. Rain? Floods. An inch of snow? The whole country closes for some reason.

The only weather the UK can actually cope with is grey and miserable. Any deviation leads to immediate national collapse. If we didn’t have such a brilliant water system, we’d be in serious trouble. But thankfully, our system is built to protect corporate profits, no matter what. Everything is secondary to that, including your ability to drink.

Thankfully, Andy Burnham is showing leadership on the matter. He is taking the emergency step of doing absolutely nothing. When questioned about nationalisation, the Prime Minister calmly explained that his donors won’t allow it.

In a bizarre coincidence, the system that allows them to personally profit is the only one that could possibly work. Sure, we could end up with crop failures and food shortages, but I’m sure things would’ve been worse if Jeremy Corbyn had got his way.

Obviously, this is not a systemic problem, it’s a technological one. Virtually all our rainfall is lost because we can’t make pipes that don’t burst. Water companies have absolutely no incentive to stop leaks and every incentive not to, but I’m confident this has nothing whatsoever to do with the matter.

We've had that same s**t with city council taking over everywhere. There was a decent protest last week at county Hall set up by tories. This one is set for next city Council meeting.

At 2nd aug we were 5% up on last year in UU region
I doubt a hosepipe ban would have much affect. I for one wouldnt give a ff.

In other news the stop tap has been fixed!
I never reported it but some lads came today and sorted it. If they're gonna sort my verge out is another matter what a mess
