UK PM Keir Starmer to woo voters & MPs with plan to cut cost of living.
Can't be done without curbing profiteering, increasing real wages, democratizing the workplace, equitable distribution of income/wealth.
Start by ending privatisation of water/energy.
The world’s 500 richest people have total wealth of $11.9tn.
Their wealth up by $2.2tn in 2025. 8 billionaires accounting for a 25% of the gains.
No one becomes this rich by working.
They fund right-wing parties, oppose worker/human rights, cause more pollution than normal people.
❌ Thames Water want to pollute ILLEGALLY for the next 15 years. Thousands of you have already said NO by signing our petition
✉️ Next? We're taking it to Ofwat's inbox
✍️Take 1min now to send an email to Ofwat, explaining why they must say no to 15 more years of illegal pollution
Let's get this to 2k before the end of the weekend 😍🇪🇺

UK energy bill payers to hand £2bn a year in subsidies to EDF, owned by the French govt, for building two nuclear power stations.
That will come handy in keeping energy prices down in France, improving govt finances.
Dividends won't be taxed in the UK.
All because UK govts oppose public ownership
This is how Rachel Reeves could deliver a progressive budget.
Billions available without increasing the rate of income tax, National Insurance or corporation tax.
Just end some of the perks for a select few, anomalies and abuses. Redistribute to alleviate poverty, better infrastructure.
Disgusting when Chief executive Louise Beardmore is paid £840,000 every year! United Utilities has reported a 131% increase in profit for the 6 months ending on 30/9. That follows ‘regulator’ Ofwat approving a five year plan to raise people’s bills in the North West by 32%, starting April 2025.
UK electricity bills up 163% since 2008. Wages haven't.
6.1m households in fuel poverty, £4.43bn debt
Profiteering: Energy sector average profit margin 23%, grid sector 38%, gas extraction 58%.
Profit last year £30bn. 128,000 a year die in fuel poverty.
No govt checks profiteering.

The UK Government is rolling out freeports and free zones nationwide with billions in taxpayer money, yet operates with an alarming lack of transparency. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/72...

The PFI disaster
Wes Streeting readies more of the NHS for privatisation. Hands £6m to advisers.
NHS will be a shell doling out contracts to private equity and corporations. Profits guaranteed.
Money will buy less. Higher taxes, lower value.
Say NO to privatisation of the NHS.
From taxing private jets to closing offshore loopholes, and more.
Here's how we could make our economy fairer and raise £60 billion to revitalise key services to deliver first class healthcare, education and more.

Since privatisation in the 1980s, we the public have paid *almost £200bn* to shareholders
Your household has paid £250 extra a year since 2010 for this ideology
Excellent new study from @cmmonwealth.bsky.social 👇
Time to take back OUR public assets 💧💡🚌🚄📮

Ofwat/Govt promised this to England's water company investors.
“right to collect” revenues from customers, “opportunities for upside”, “capped liabilities” and “investment positive” ... “no exposure to competitive or market stranding risks”
This is a licence to fleece people.

“New wealth of top 1% surges by over $52.4 trillion since 2015 – enough to end poverty 22 times over.”
Just once would do… if they bothered.

Thames Water's greedy creditors have *no leverage*
Investors have written down their stakes to ZERO
The company's debt can be WIPED OUT using existing legislation
The creditors can't offer a better deal than permanent public ownership
What is the government waiting for?

Bold leadership isn't just my leadership.
It's the thousands of you that I've been campaigning with on countless action days.
It's the leadership in your communities for people who don't yet even know the Green Party will give them the real representation they urgently need.
Day 9 of Lois asking Steve Reed to join her at the football. ⚽
Something stinks about Thames Water's sewage plant upgrade costs. How can it be 15x more expensive than building a new one in other countries?
Perhaps Environment Secretary Steve Reed can tell her?

Private shareholders made dividends of £3.6 billion from owning our trains in the last decade. Yet the government is leaving our trains fully privately owned. Sign We Own It's petition to demand they take our trains into public ownership:

Neoliberalism has failed, but the Labour government is wedded to it. No wonder they’re so frightened. They realise that we might rumble that they, too, are a bunch of failures.

Brexit hurt our economy more than COVID and PUTIN combined
#RejoinEU is the biggest boost poss to our economy.
In the face of cuts, when there's clear alternatives is unforgivable, and will further push people to Reform.
We can't afford Brexit.
