Make no mistake, this Govt is trying to stop *all* dissent. What's it frightened of? https://bright-green.org/2023/01/31/a-battle-over-the-right-to-protest-is-being-fought-in-parliament-this-week/

It isn't the working class fighting back that will bring down the Conservatives, it's the middle classes calling them cunts on twitter. 🙃

With our precious rivers now used for the routine dumping of sewage, don’t forget that Liz Truss drove through huge cuts to @EnvAgency funding in 2015 when she was boss @DefraGovUK and oversaw “efficiency” plans that reduced EA funding by £235 million https://amp.theguardian.com/politics/2022/aug/22/liz-truss-environment-agency-cuts-sewage-water-pollution

You pay double for your gas bills, the corporations make double the profit.
They give nurses a £1400 pay rise, then they charge nurses £1300 to park at hospitals.
That’s how it works in this rigged society.
They are profiteering from us.

Oh look another #Brexit benefit - the UK can become even more stupid in the future - perhaps that was their goal all along.

I’m so utterly sick of working with NHS colleagues who toil & strive with such grit & decency while the party of government chucks out NHS ‘pledges’ with pure deceit & mendaciousness to the core.

Let me get this right - the NHS fines women who are eligible for free prescriptions for getting free prescriptions because someone (not generally the woman herself) hasn’t filled in a form?
Disproportionate & unnecessarily punitive

Significant development.
1. Did National Leadership Magistrate decide this policy himself - or was he advised by govt and/or lobbied by energy companies?
2. Were Ministers informed - if so, who and when?
3. Is it linked to backlog pressures in courts? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-64524156
