Whilst hoping for an “Indian Summer” it is noticeably cooler at dawn recently. Forecasts for the next 2 weeks are for changeable weather and nothing to get excited about! Unlike South Korea which is preparing for a lot of rain. My apples are smaller this year and not ready yet, tomato plants are nearly done. Cutting back the herbs .
Note how the racist press lines up to criticise tax increases, but fails to criticise the policies of government, ‘have their cake and eat it’ comes to mind. The luxury of being not in power is that there is no need to justify policies or say how they will be funded. So Reform &Co can talk about deporting people without having to justify how they would staff the NHS and many other industries; they never address the facts about the future demography of the uk.
Apparently the government is running scared of the legal costs of privatising the water industry. Just pass a law – stupid. Parliament is above the law ultimately, so just pass the law, and refuse the judiciary allowance to change it. This may raise other issues, but the government was able to imprison people for showing support Palestine Action posters. The hedge funds that have been ripping off customers of water companies can just fuck off. They will continue to seek out opportunities for easy profits in the UK – and no one will fuck off out the UK unless they are total losers. Where would they go? The Middle East is fucked up enough – maybe Canada?
