South West Water is vandalising our waterways whilst being propped up by huge govt subsidies. A broken business model that rewards shareholders, but punishes bill payers and the #environment.

Water firm given £450m subsidies at same time it paid £1.5bn to shareholders
The news has triggered renewed calls for public ownership.

New day, another damning story on Thames Water. They’ve sucked out huge profits and left infrastructure to rot - and it could be worse than they’re letting on.

Higher bills = more fat cat dividends. 💰

This has to stop 🛑

When the magazine of the capital markets starts calling for Thames Water to be renationalised, you know things are bad. It’s time for government to step in, protect bill payers and end the farce. Special administration and public ownership now. bit.ly/3YSZM17
