Public ownership of water in England would mean no dividends to pay, £85bn paid since privatization.
Cost of borrowing would be around half, guaranteed by govt.
Reduction in consultant fees, don't need so many.
Simpler regulation, no shareholders to appease.
Result: more investment, lower bills.

It’s especially sweet when our ex-orphans give birth to girls. Elephants are a matriarchal species, which means that females form lifelong family units. When little Sia is all grown up and raising babies of her own, they will still be walking side by side.
