Private water companies have ripped off customers and polluted our rivers and oceans for far too long.

I keep music souvenirs over many years. Tidying, it was ace to find doodles by Richey Edwards of Manic Street Preachers. They're faded now but still Artful, to me, so part of #PlanetWater25 #ArtfulFest (as that dimension was born NYE at MSP Cardiff)!

I voted for @greenparty.org.uk at the last #GE and also think @zackpolanski.bsky.social is an actual LEADER who has already made an undeniable difference - especially by giving people SOME light and hope in these dark times of despair - by speaking truth to power. We all need to make a difference
