First govt claimed they got that ludicrous £100bn to nationalise the water industry came from a think tank report. Then it claimed didn't because the idea was totally rubbish, transpired the report had been bought and paid for by water companies.
Then it claimed it had been calculated internally by civil servants at @DefraGovUK independent of everyone else. Then it didn't because the idea was also rubbish, transpired there was no independent Defra calculation it was all based on the same rubbish, totally makeup, totally factious @Ofwat's regulatory capital value, the one that also claims that @thameswater is worth a mind melting £21,008,425,000.
Blistering letter calling govt out for its deceit from the People's Commission.

🔴.@wendychambLD concern about ALL #50sWomen?
🔴That's misleading wordplay?
🔴.@libdems support #Waspi
🔴#Libdems #Waspi do NOT support **ALL** #50sWomen but a **SMALL** % of them & 'crumbs' for #Maladministration
🔴Enforceable UK & Int'l laws represent ALL #50sWomen #CEDAWinLAW

Today I voiced my concern about 1950s women not being mentioned in the Chancellor's statement or report. 1950s women have been waiting far too long for compensation. I asked her whether she's considering the Ombudsman's report and if she'll provide a statement before the budget.

@2020Comms STAY ALERT Successive governments extended a 1983 men only national insurance subsidy for 35 years and broke a promise to women born in the 1950s to offer them similar terms
More than 4.65 million men aged over 60 have had the last five years of their national insurance PAID

The mainstream media were all over the vexatious allegations last April, but are nowhere to be seen now that Alan Duncan has been completely exonerated of fabricated charges. if there is nothing else you watch today, do watch this.

Former foreign office minister says collusion between 'defenders of Israeli extremism' and senior Conservatives led to probe against him. Former UK minister Alan Duncan has been cleared of allegations of antisemitism and has said that a Tory probe launched into him was an example of “underhand collusion” between “immoderate defenders of Israeli extremism” and senior Conservative figures. Duncan, a former foreign office minister, announced his exoneration at a news conference in London on Tuesday organised by the International Centre of Justice for Palestinians.

@MarinaPurkiss Somehow I feel it will send me to sleep. Apart from being in a time warp I fail to see anything interesting about him. His political influence is something again

I’m so f*cking tired of our media taking politicians who have caused untold damage, who have lied incessantly to us, who could be considered traitors to their country…
And then sanitising them for entertainment
Well done you absolute, bellends.

@CraigMurrayOrg It’s not a let down it’s showing how scared you made them

Well, I could not possibly have had a better team who came together starting from 5 weeks ago, when there were 3 of us and no resources except your crowdfunding.
We told our truth and I am so proud of them. Sorry if I let you down.
Love.

Our vote was a combination of those appalled by how I was treated, those who took issue with having an imposed candidate who didn’t know us, those who were never going to vote Labour after Starmer’s stance on Gaza, and those that have never voted before.
Labour split the vote the moment they deselected me.
English
They said we wouldn’t get anywhere. They put out graphs they knew were lies in order to confuse local people.
They lied about me to mislead people.
But in just 4 weeks we achieved the same vote as a political party that has been around for over 100 years.
I’m so angry that the Labour Party has done this to Chingford & Woodford Green. They have returned Iain Duncan Smith to Westminster and should be ashamed.
Labour’s candidate will now go back to Brent, while we have to deal with the consequences.
You have given me so much support. I can’t express how grateful I am. We will fight on.
