Feargal Sharkey explains that this £100bn figure everyone keeps quoting for the cost to renationalise the water industry comes from a report by the private companies!
Feargal then outlines why nationalising the water industry wouldn't cost us a penny #GMB

Great quote from 2016 Chemistry Nobel Prize winner Prof Ben Feringa @FeringaLab of @StratinghInst at @univgroningen. #RealTimeChem
"When I draw a molecule in China or in Argentina, it is the same molecule. People understand immediately without knowing Spanish or Chinese. That is beautiful. Our common goal is not about power or borders of the country, it is about bringing forward human knowledge." Ben Feringa
ALT Portrait of Ben Feringa. He is smiling and he is holding a molecular model.

Big 4 bank profits were up 700% in first half of this year compared to 2020, so I’ve just asked the Chancellor to introduce a windfall tax on banks’ excess profits, to fund support for households struggling with energy & housing costs

Jack Kerouac’s book ON THE ROAD was published on this day in 1957.
“Kerouac. He honored life. I had to read everything again that Kerouac wrote—not that I did, but I thought about it differently. All of a sudden, ON THE ROAD…he was talking about the road of life.”—Bob Dylan
A lovely wine, great producer.
