Background

Water is a basic necessity of life , it should not be in the hands of profiteering private companies, it should be nationalised or in a not for profit organisation.

Additional details

Water bills in England and Wales will rise by an average of £86 in the year from april 2025 the industry regulator Ofwat has said. The increase , which varies according to where customers live, is to help water companies pay for problems including sewage and water leaks. Average water bills will rise by 36% between 2025 and 2030. The public should not be asked to pay for upgrading or maintenance of the water supply system, these private companies have been making enormous profits over the years and paying their shareholders and bosses huge payouts instead of investing in their systems, and they come asking the government ( us ) for handouts to get them out of debt .
