Tory Leadership contest 2022

Not too sure about that. They'll somehow accept a rich, elite, power wielding ideologue who is brown or female. Creating a society that isn't racist or sexist is another matter.
I disagree. I think enough paid-up Conservative Party Members are racist enough to choose the white idealogue over the brown idealogue regardless of policy. Truss’s visual transformation into Thatcher2 is merely reinforcing the decision they are already being force-fed from their comfort medium of choice.

As has been mentioned many times - look at member's fave kemi badenoch. level of eyeswivel trumps ethnic back ground.

Do you suppose they have an actual income amount in mind where bunging money becomes acceptable? Must have assets including a large enough garden that the cost of reseeding it after a drought is mentioned at dinner ...
 
Not read the detail of that, but it seems perfectly reasonable to me that water companies should be expected to compensate water consumers for their failure to supply water in adequate quantities, especially given the ridiculous amount of water wasted and lost to the system through leaks.
Totally agree. If a shop can't fill it's shelves, customers aren't expected to pay for what they can't buy. If a water company can't fill it's pipes, we're still expected to pay, and as it's still a monopoly market we can't shop elsewhere. Either the skid marks are all for the free market, or they're not. They can't have it both ways.

OFWAT already fines companies for leaks and returns the money to customers. Maybe it needs to do this more, but linking financial penalties to hosepipe bans instead of leaks is just ridiculous.
