Great piece about Steve Reed's non-appearance at the Palace match last night.
Lois had to make do with a cardboard cut-out of Steve instead...but he didn't want to talk about why water should be in public hands either.
Come on Steve, you know it makes sense. #LoisvSteve
Last night Lois Davis took her MP Steve Reed to the football at Crystal Palace.⚽
Or she would have, if he'd bothered to accept her invitation.
Steve's happy to be wined and dined by the investment company that owns Northumbrian Water but he won't listen to his own constituents. #LoisvSteve
Steve Reed! Lois wants to know why you wouldn't accept her offer of a ticket to the Crystal Palace match last night.
Stop kowtowing to the privatised water companies.
Time you listened to the 82% of us who want water in public hands. #LoisvSteve
As expected no MP on DEFRA Committee asked Steve Reed why public ownership of water is excluded from "independent" commission looking at water. @cathobbs.bsky.social @takebackwater.bsky.social @loisred.bsky.social #LoisvSteve
Environment Minister Steve Reed is in front of the DEFRA Committee today. @jeremycorbyn.bsky.social has a message for him about our water.
Privatisation has failed on ALL fronts. Public ownership now!
Oh, BTW Steve - you coming to the Palace match tonight?⚽ #LoisvSteve
I'll be there! Come on Palace and come on public ownership of water! @loisred.bsky.social #LoisvSteve

Day 14 of Lois asking Steve Reed to join her at the football. ⚽
We've got a ticket for Steve for tomorrow's Palace match.
🏆Surely he'll want to celebrate their FA Cup win?
Go with Lois, see the game - and talk about why 82% of us think water belongs in public hands.

Day 12 of Lois asking Steve Reed to join her at the football. ⚽
Every year, it feels like we're paying more and getting less from those profit-mad water companies.
It's time Steve saw sense. Water belongs in public hands.

Day 10 of Lois asking Steve Reed to join her at the football. 5 days to match day!⚽
Steve could bring Thames Water into special administration. But he thinks he knows better.
It's time he listened to us. Sign our petition if you think Thames Water belongs in public hands.

#WaterCompanies #sewage @teamlabouruk.bsky.social #LoisvSteve Please repost the post below if you can. We need to remind the Labour Party why they were voted in. To stop the rot in our politics.
Day 9 of Lois asking Steve Reed to join her at the football. ⚽
Something stinks about Thames Water's sewage plant upgrade costs. How can it be 15x more expensive than building a new one in other countries?
Perhaps Environment Secretary Steve Reed can tell her?
#LoisvSteve
💪"You know, name any water company in England. They're failing."
Lois says what we all know - private water in England isn't working for anyone except the water companies.
82% of the public want water in public hands.
⚠️Steve Reed - are you paying attention?
#LoisvSteve
Day 7 of Lois asking Steve Reed to join her at the football. ⚽
35p in every £1 of our bills goes to pay off private water company debt. That's money which could be better spent on repairing leaky pipes and stopping sewage spills.
Time to bring water into public ownership, Steve. #LoisvSteve

Day 6 of Lois asking Steve Reed to join her at the football. ⚽
Thames Water has cancelled over 100 environmental projects, but we're still paying the price through higher bills!
It's time to ditch the private polluters and take water back into public ownership.

Day 5 of Lois asking Steve Reed to join her at the football. ⚽
Water is publicly owned in Scotland and guess what, bills are £113 cheaper! When Scottish bills are rising 10%, in England and Wales we're seeing bill hikes of 26%. 📈
Public ownership makes sense.
#LoisvSteve
We’re all with you, Lois #LoisvSteve
Day 4 of Lois asking Steve Reed to join her at the football. ⚽
University of Greenwich research shows public ownership of water could save us over £3 billion a year! 🤯
Come on Steve, listen to the evidence and the 82% of us who want water in public hands. 💧

Day 3 of Lois asking Steve Reed to join her at the football. ⚽
He's not around - even his constituency office is in a building called the Hideaway! 🤦
Steve's been cosying up to the water companies and listening to their bogus claims on the cost of public ownership.
