  6. I suppose that the combination of contracting ‘over engineered’ with less refined technologies with more precise lifetimes (where adequate typically means ‘when the current government has been forgotten) has done London a favour. Shame about Westminster though.

    And just think how his descendents let this rather impressive Victorian down -

  11. Thames Water is now such a basket case that it needed (it claims) to pay its new finance director a £1m bonus to *join* the firm as a 'necessary incentive'.... so, if it cannot get senior managers to join without bribing them, perhaps customers should stop paying their bills as a 'necessary incentive' for TW to actually do the job its customers thought they were paying their bills for.... clearly financial incentives 'work'!

    Who are the key figures in the #Sewage crisis, and where are they now?

    With anger stoked by #Channel4’ s drama #DirtyBusiness, we look at what has happened to some of the main players

    Sandra Laville

    "Water companies have been in the public eye for the wrong reasons again recently. #SouthWestWater was in the dock pleading guilty to supplying water unfit for human consumption, while the regulator fined South East Water £22.5m for repeated supply failures that affected more than 280,000 people over three years.

    "As the full scale of the sewage pollution scandal has been revealed to the public over the past six years, key figures working for the regulators and the #privatised companies have been heavily criticised. Channel 4’s drama Dirty Business has focused attention on individuals at the heart of the scandal.

    "The Guardian examined what some of the main characters are doing today."

    [...]

    "Sarah Bentley

    Bentley was the chief executive of #ThamesWater from September 2020 to June 2023. She joined from Severn Trent and promised an eight-year turnaround for the company, but left with immediate effect after three years following a public outcry over the discharge of #RawSewage into #rivers and missing targets on pollution and sewer flooding."
