Voters want a fighter. Talk is cheap. #Burnham needs to take on a few fights, even if he loses.

IMO, the quickest win is to put #ThamesWater in special measures, then rush thru legislation to ensure most debt is carried by the investors.

IMO, gov should only cover debt held by UK pension funds.

'It’s clear the business model for #ThamesWater has failed & the company is unviable. Even it's own shareholders refuse to keep it afloat.

staff are facing an uncertain future, jobs at risk & no hope of much-needed investment. Customers will have to contend with poor water quality and rising bills.

This utter chaos is further evidence the government needs to renationalise Thames Water now.'
