  1. @Eceni

    It is past time to #NationaliseWater

    There is no reason essential services like this should be in private hands. The failure or privatisation is clear.

  2. @juglugs Much like having a shower as we pay for the infrastructure to be invested in for a second time. #NationaliseWater

  3. @pedestrians1st Nothing has changed. Bonuses are still legal as long as they’re not performance related. They can be arbitrary. Labour must be on the take from the big institutional investors. #NationaliseWater

  4. No wonder so many people are absolutely fed up of politicians.

    Completely tone deaf and out of touch...

    Thames Water is more than useless. Shame I can't change provider.

  8. What if Louise Beardmore, CEO of United Utilities was contractually obliged to swim in all water bodies where they discharge every year?

    That's how you make people accountable.

    I hope Labour get in a nationalise the UK rail network.
    I’m moving back to Australia and was looking at living 1hr 40mins outside Sydney.
    The rail fare is between $5 and $9.
    I currently live in Brighton. A 1 hour train trip to London costs $45.00 (£23.90)
    We drive to the in-laws in Cardiff and it costs £50 in petrol.
    If we got a train it would be £149.00.
    It’s ridiculous

  14. Severn Trent fined more than £2m for ‘reckless’ pollution of River Trent theguardian.com/business/2024/

    A £2m fine on £476m profit*

    Pah. Hardly touches the sides and certainly didn’t impact shareholder dividend.

    And this is why #dirtywater is profitable business.

    #nationalisewater now.

    I am not so sure those debts should be honored. If the lender is a bank, that bank clearly did not do due diligence for the loan.
    If the company cannot repay the loan, it is the bank's own fault.

  16. About 15 years ago I had a very very knackering sleep depriving job and bumped into a #ThamesWater mini-van, at 5am, breaking only a headlight cover, Their insurance claimed £150 for damages and £700+ for vehicle replacement, on mine. 👀 You can imagine what that did to my premium for several years. … Only cause they’re trending for bad stuff 😎 #NationaliseWater
