There are lots of stories going around
at the moment regarding water companies. Some are true, whilst some need to be
fact checked. This is because some anti-UK government individuals (like me) can
get carried away and not let the whole truth get in the way of a good story.
The Environment Bill
It’s important, I think, not to inadvertently
spread false information about what amendments were in the environment bill.
What we do know is ...
When Boris Johnson got resigned, he left office boasting of
record vacancies. This was parroted by his supporters as a wonderful
