⏰ We’ve got just 6 weeks until #ThamesWater’s future is decided. I’ve just written to #SteveBarclay to demand there is no bailout for Thames' shareholders at our expense.
Time to show it doesn’t pay to pollute. Take Thames Water into public hands. https://weownit.org.uk/dont-bailout-thames-shareholders
#Doctors have started a three-day walk-out today, in their ongoing dispute over pay.
Initial hopes that #VictoriaAtkins might bring calm & sense where #SteveBarclay has merely inflamed the dispute have now been dashed... so, we're back with a dispute that will certainly worsen (in the sort term) the #NHScrisis.
Biut as always, lets be clear; this is not 'junior' Doctors fault, they have been backed into a corner by a #Tory govt. who have been defunding the NHS to engineer this very crisis!
Hmmm... so only a couple of weeks after (Hartman) #SteveBarclay was replaced as #Health Secretary, #VictoriaAtkins has helped broker a deal that the BMA will put to #consultants, to end their ongoing series of #strikes.
It seems pretty clear that Barclay was the problem with reaching a resolution, which also reinforces the notion that the #NHScrisis has been engineered by the #Tories, and is now being ended as they see mileage in ending the deadlock.... game playing with people's health!

Nothing shady about that. [Sarc.]
"UK environment secretary took donation from funder of climate sceptic thinktank"
It is generally safe to assume that Tory ministers are bad eggs; it goes with the territory. But this is just taking the piss.
OMG, after we find that the new #health secretary, Victoria Atkins' husband works for British Sugar, now we find that #SteveBarclay, incoming #Environmental Secretary is married to a senior executive at Anglian Water (currently under investigation, by OfWat for #sewage dumping).
Hmm... what was that about #ToryCorruption, again?
