  1. Channel 4's Dirty Business campaigners call for public to stop paying water bills over sewage dumps

  2. #ofgem put up the price cap by 10% whilst energy companies are expected to make an 11% increase to their profits

    What with winter fuel discounts ending, this may be a very unhappy Christmas for the elderly and those who receive little income

    BUT

    Try as I might, I can find no justification for this increase.

  4. One of the best things to come from the fall in house prices will be the reduced profits of estate agents. These grifters have been living on easy street for decades with revenues growing on the back of soaring house prices and profitability rises from increased automation. What on earth do they do beyond look gormless? Good riddance to them one and all. Of course the filthy #Tories have done nothing to solve.

    Pricing will never be simple if it's based on where and when.

    Do I smell a hidden agenda here, to ramp up the price of rail travel in the Uk still further by making the price of 2 single journeys more expensive than 1 return journey?

    Rail travel in the UK is already one of the most expensive in the world, with trains overcrowded and dirty.
