While people struggle to pay bills, Thames Water bosses pat themselves on the back, racking up debt, dodging responsibility & passing the cost to us. They profit, we pay. It's not enough to just stop bonuses. This only gets fixed with public ownership. ft.com/content/1f6d15…

Not forgetting of course the chairman of Thames Water 💧 has already made his view very clear, you ban bonuses we'll just put up our salaries.

An early start to the day. Me in today's Daily Mail "The Thames Water bosses who preside over record leaks, pollution and rising bills should not get grotesque bonuses. They should be sacked." dailymail.co.uk/debate/article…

Thames Water – and the whole water industry – has become the poster boy for a failed system of privatisation, says Feargal Sharkey in the Mail: dailymail.co.uk/debate/article…

Interesting. Local journalists now being threatened by Southern Water. 👇 Now what was all that guff about openness and transparency?

"Lack of expenditure oversight at the Water Industry Commission for Scotland was 'simply unacceptable'." Hmm? 🤔 bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Free the 15. #FreeThe15 🐧

"Environment Agency urges water companies to 'do more' after driest start to spring in 70 years." I see Environment Agency - Yorkshire & North East are up to their old tricks again, "urging", water companies "to do more". Your'e the regulator for God's sake, try regulating. Pathetic.

"Thames Water creditors to write off £6bn if KKR takes control." So here's how this is going to work. KKR (see under New York vulture capital company & star of Barbarians at the Gate), are now threatening regulators, government and TW's debt holders that unless they are allowed

👇This is what we’ve been warning of - our worst fears coming true. Not just government, but also the farming industry have to get a grip. It’s time they recognised the urgent need to change their ways. #SaveTheWye
