Starmer's back out moaning about 'blockers' again. So we're going to help councils to get blocking. There is simply no need to build on an inch of green space... Keep an eye out here for our NEW councillor toolkit, coming very soon! @CommunityPlann1

"Welcome to sewage-on-sea: Britain's most fashionable tourist hotspot Whitstable is being despoiled by floods of effluent pouring into the ocean, just as the taps in homes and businesses run dry."

People in Whitstable and Kent really do get it from both ends, your sewage is dumped on to local beaches and your tap water gets cut off simply because the water company can't keep your supply running. Bloody hell.

Oops! Ofwat lets the cat out of the bag..

Welsh Water has agreed £45 M will be paid from its profits..

Welsh Water is described as a not for profit organisation.

Have they by any chance been conning the public?

Reeves examines using private sector funds to build new towns.

It is PFI renamed as public-private partnerships (PPP).

The state guarantees corporate profits. £1 investment results in £6 repayment.

Cheaper for govt to borrow. It can issue public bonds.

South West Water fined £1.853m for supplying contaminated drinking water.

SWW is a serial offender, loses 107m litres of water daily to leaky pipes, dumped sewage in rivers for 407,006 hours.

Still trades. No exec fined, charged. People fleeced.

@premnsikka @MichaelRosenYes South west water executives should be arrested and charged with actual bodily harm for every person made ill. If a restaurant served contaminated meat they would be shut down.

[We Own It @We_OwnIt]

South West Water's £1.8m fine is pathetic. 16,000 households affected. >500 people taken ill. 10 people hospitalised.

22 convictions for SWW since 2014. Why do we reward criminal activity with a 25 year licence & fines totalling 0.04% of the money they've extracted since privatisation?

They should be fined into oblivion. https://t.co/9Cy725jiHD

I think our agricultural landscape is becoming more and more valuable as regards food security, set against increasing drought and floods and basically any weather that can ruin a crop. What ever you think of this picture, its where our wildlife is....

[Cat Hobbs @CatHobbs]

South West Water's criminal offence made hundreds of people sick

Shareholders' NET EXTRACTION £5 BILLION from 1990-2023

A £1.85m fine is irrelevant, pocket change

Make them put lack of investment on balance sheet as a liability

Then PUBLIC OWNERSHIP

[We Own It @We_OwnIt]

Privatisation of water in a nutshell:

They make us pay more

They dump sewage in our rivers

They sell off our reservoirs and build none

But but but… the CEO is paid hundreds of thousands

And the shareholders have been paid billions

Congratulations England, we can’t figure out what 90% can.

See what she says in the next post in this thread! ⬇️
THANK YOU to all my followers who helped the issue go viral here... you made a difference! 💪👏🐦❤️😍

Public ownership of water is feasible, affordable, & essential for protecting our rivers & seas. Yet this government is trying to tell us otherwise.

Sign up to join Feargal Sharkey, Dirty Business Campaigners & We Own It on 9 June to protest outside DEFRA (the government's Environment Department). https://t.co/BFGv68mEIy

@GrahamDenny9 @greenbeltsal @BC_Suffolk @BumblebeeTrust Brambles are essential for the natural regeneration of our trees 🌳 especially Oak which would be eaten by 🦌without protection @TheKentAcorn

[Chris Ryde @LandguardNot]

He is not wrong, incremental loss of this sort of habitat can go almost unoticed and it is going on every day. Every unecessary trashing of our countryside equals an incremental loss of wildlife. Once its gone its gone.

If you have not yet signed this vital petition - pls now do. ‘Forest City’ in name only; in reality more death to our countryside… https://t.co/h43vFBe0LF

The news of Scotland mandating swift bricks has gone viral on various big mainstream accounts. If only everyone who liked the post below emailed Housing Secretary Steve Reed telling him to go back to his original support and mandate. Just like Scotland AND Gibraltar !

[Anna Biggins @AnnaEBiggins]

@pippaheylings please keep fighting for the chalk streams & River Granta. Push for legal rights like the River Wye now has.

[Russell ChalkStreamsInCrisis 🦇🦎🦇🦎 @RussellB1ggs]

Phosphate has risen again to 1.31 & unbelievably the @EnvAgencyAnglia are allowing a land owner upstream to abstract water directly from this rare #ChalkStream reduced flow compounds the pollutants @AnglianWater Algae scum & Phosphate results in death of the river invertebrates🪰

[Prem Sikka @premnsikka]

Thames Water asks millions to stop using hosepipes.

A few days sunshine and infrastructure can't cope

TW built no new reservoir since 1989, loses 570m-592m litres of water daily to leaky pipes

Sewage dumped in rivers. Customers fleeced. TW still trades.

@ProtectTheWild_ #Rivers are supposed to be perennial. But, due unplanned human activism rivers are drying up.
Giving Legal Rights to entire catchment of River Wye, UK has indeed created history and a major victory for Mother Nature🩵💚🩵
Worthy of replication Worldwide🩵
