We need to start putting board members in prison for this along with banning any shareholder payouts. That will make them clean up their act pretty quickly
Can we just admit privatisation is a failure and put an end to it? The only people benefitting is the people in charge, ruining our country in the process
This is a clever article. It measures water in “hours” which is of course absolutely meaningless to normal people (like me). I have absolutely no idea if it is a lot or a little, but is clearly aimed to get people riled up.
I just started watching Dirty Business last night, it does a great job of showing what is meant by underinvestment.
This really is the biggest scandal of our time, it dwarfs anything else. But you know, we can’t blame faceless foreign investors now can we, where would we put the flags?
You’d think Westminster might have something to say about this
Privatisation is not the issue, ministers chumming with their mates to eliminate control is the scandal and people need to be held accountable and follow due course. But unfortunately this model is rampant everywhere.
Water just isn’t the business to be squeezing profits from.
You have literally 100% market capitalisation, pretty much every house is hooked up or receives it because it’s literally what we need to not die.
Skipping steps and fucking up our water is literally harming themselves too.
Once it’s all gone are they gonna drink money?
I wonder how many senior civil servants profited from this. Like governments come and go, but the people that advise them are there the whole time right? Just seems weird that issues like this go unnoticed for so long and I always get troubled when I see these senior people moving out of the service and into private consultancy firms for those they were responsible for keeping tabs on.
Is this one of those things where it’s the easiest thing to do instead of spending billions and the reason the government won’t take control because it’s either this or they take control and spend billions trying to fix it or have alternative solutions and they rather a private company do it than them having to do either do it and get the bad press or spend billions to put in place correct procedures etc
I have no idea what I’m talking about just throwing out guesses because the obvious thing to do is for water to be nationalised but then why aren’t they doing it? Must be a reason behind it
