They have 2 jobs 1) dispose of your 💩2) give you clean water out of your taps 🚰. They are incapable of either. Happy to pay more? If not, email your MP here campaigns.sewagecampaignnetwork.org.uk

What did you do this Tuesday morning? We were at the Royal Courts of Justice attempting to stop Thames Water being bailed out, costing us bill payers up to £500 a year more on our bills. Thanks to Windrush against sewage pollution for their hard work & We own it for organising.

Did you know that Ofwat could be putting our bills up by almost an extra £500 a year! Write to your MP now, you can find our template letter on our website here.

Thames Water is £19bn in debt, and is still poisoning our river. Take action & together we can force change.

On Monday we attended a briefing for MPs with the formidable @windrushwasp.bsky.social, Stanley Root, forensic accountant & prof. Ewan McGaughey. All highlighting the scale of illegality in water companies. @labourlewis.bsky.social @annadixonmp.bsky.social

Always good to spend the day with old friends. In Witney with WASP. Absolutely shocking to see sewage fungus and sanitary pads choking the Colwell Brook, with ammonia readings too high for the machine to read. This is the supposed ‘diluted untreated effluent’ that Thames Water insists is harmless.

Wow. The vultures are picking over the carcass now. And who’s expected to foot the bill? We are. End the scam and put Thames into Special Administration now and bring it back into permanent public ownership archive.ph/63OuJ

Right here 👇🏼
Shareholders bagged £380 for every hour they dumped #sewage in 2023.

Privatisation is a scam. We need public ownership.

Bring Thames Water into PUBLIC OWNERSHIP NOW

Well done to Liberal Democrat Sarah Olney MP for calling on the government to put the company into Special Administration

Time to PROTECT UK taxpayers and the 16 million 'customers' who have no choice but to use Thames Water

As if by magic Thames Water are unloading pallets full of bottled water in Tesco car park. This s**t show of a junk rated company is a risk to human health, and our country as a whole! Where are the government in this? RUNNING SCARED!

Share if you agree! Drinking water supplies for 16m people ‘on a knife edge’ with a £23bn infrastructure deficit. and government proposes … reed beds and bill payer bailout?
End the shit show, put Thames into special administration, wipe out the debt and bring it back into public ownership.
November 17, 2024 at 10:15 PM
We’ve been saying for years? If Thames Water are not treating the sewage, have over 180 criminal convictions and have no money for infrastructure, what is going on with the drinking water that 16m people rely on for survival. Government refuses to even consider public ownership.

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
