A Guess. But when outside the UK. Twinings is the most likely one to find in supermarkets etc.
When I lived in the US it was often all I could find. Or that evil US shit Lipton.
Had to go to British stores to find Tetley. And only being back in the UK for 15 years did I discover the truth.
"Yorkshire tea is real tea."
Not if you want those debtors top invest in anything in your nation again.
The nation is then faced with a banking industry that refuses to trust any large government projects. So we then have to find the money for any investment before building.
Honestly, if we nationalized now. The debtors would expect the gov to pay. And it would be hard to refuse. At least without harming our national credit/trust.
Let the fuckers go bankrupt. Spend some time letting the military have to provide clean water. Aka 70s stand pipes.
Then rebuild them as a nationalized company. This way, the debtors cannot claim Thames water was anything but a dumb investment on their part.
It is very likely the extra 3b they just borrowed was only allowed because the banks consider potential nationalisation a risk reduction strategy. Fuck letting them screw taxpayers by funding failing companies.
Labour will not put country above party.
And the way things are. Not splitting the left vote is to late. The labour party has lost it. They have basically worked to reject it.
Actually continuing to encourage left wing voters to support labour is likely to split it worse then openly admitting labour is no longer looking for left wing support.
You said you don't like people telling you how to think. But no one is.
They are just telling you that your an arsehole if you think a certain way.
You have the right to think how ever you like. But we will also judge you based on that thinking.
Come on. No one needs that image placed on the mind.
The lines were never privatised. Network rail is planned to be merged into GBR. But as it is already under dft control. The plans are a little in the air ATM.
First off the are not buying out any companies. These companies own nothing but a short term contract to provide service. The gov is just not renewing those contracts as the expire.
As for overpriced train leases. Yeah that is an issue. But only because the companies have temp contracts. So leasing is the only practice option. Long term GBR will have other options.
While the fetish freak is lacking any valid opinion. Responding to evolutionary developed will to procreate is the opposite of a fetish.
In 2025 raising children to avoid loneliness. Is pretty close to slavery. We literally had a history in the west. Of the youngest daughter only existing to care for parents as they aged and died. And modern refusal to support elderly care. Really is society trying to enslave the young into responsibility for their parents over taxing the wealthier to provide such care.
Honestly the choice of parenthood should be left to those that feel most able to dedicate a significant portion of their lives to raising future citizens. While avoiding shaming those who feel less able into feeling forced to raise children.
Well UK renationalisation is happening. Or pretty darn close to it.
We will see news like this again and again. As all the rail contracts come up for renewal. Labour plans to either nationalised or accept community coop like bids.
Expectation is all will be moved by 2027.
Honestly. It is more interesting how little of this plan is commented on in the news like this.
It was in the manifesto. And Starmer has confirmed it multiple times in parliament.
Yet we keep seeing articles talking about single company changes. And a few about accepted coops. Yet no talk about the long-term plan. Given how popular the calls for renationalisation is. It looks a little questionable that the media seems to be minimising the one left leaning thing labour is doing.
Little odd the call this the first. At least 2 other private contacts have been in the news as moved to GBR when they expire. Plus at least 2 community groups accepted as bids.
A guess.
But considering it is glycophate. Used as a weed killer and pest controller.
The only source would be cotton.
All non organic modern farms world wide use glycophate. Because plowing is considered bad for the climate. If farmers do not plow turning over the soil and releasing co2. Then the only way to prevent weeds is chemicals. Hence glycophate.
Given cotton is used mainly for clothing etc. I imagine it has lower requirements for such toxins compared to food production.
So my guess. It is believed to be all brands. The article states varicose brands were tested and all had high levels. But given the low numbers I doubt the press is confident enough to single out any of these brands.
