Thames Water has committed to investments/improvements HOW many times while piling on outside debt and dishing out dividends? Could #Ofwat grow a spine, a tooth and a couple of brain cells and actually work in the public interest for a change?

@matthew-wright.bsky.social
The @financialtimes.com today reports that #Ofwat will excuse #ThamesWater from any fines for the next 4 years in exchange for a promise of investment.

What the government fails to understand is that people now see these regulators as not just ineffective, but actively hostile to public welfare & concerns. There is no public trust in #Ofcom #Ofwat #Ofsted etc.

Yet another #UKLabour catastrophe.
Privatised #WaterCompanies, under the pathetic #Ofwat, just carry on with their illegal activities and share out the profits.

Water bill increased by 41% over 2 years. +31.5% 24-25, 6.9% 25-26. Absolute customer exploitation by #Yorkshirewater and #ofwat. Renationalise.

Just catching up on #DirtyBusiness and...fuming. The lies, the duplicity, the scheming. #Privatisation of water was always a stupid, stupid idea, but add to it incompetent regulation by #Ofwat and...voila. An absolute national disgrace.

They're too reliant on #OFWAT to handle the problems, but we all know OFWAT are feeble in enforcement of fines, the water companies challenge them, they'll pass on the costs to consumers, their management are not pernalised.

Wasn't OFWAT going to be replaced?

When this business model damages the country so badly and involves a key national utility why does government allow it? #KeirStarmer #EmmaReynolds #Ofwat #Water #PrivateEquity #business #EndSewagePollution

The corruption of the #watercompanies & the
collusion of #ofwat will never stop.
#Renationalisation is the only way forward. Don't believe when #UKLabour says it can't financially do so. Take back the companies with no compensation, sack the boards (& ofwat) & put a competent person in charge.

💥These fines rarely if ever get paid/shareholders rarely take money out of their pockets to pay them/invariably water companies negotiate some deal so that ultimately it doesn’t cost them a penny. #Ofwat needs to start revoking operating licences&govt needs to order them to start that process today💥

If breaking a law has no consequences, then its not a law - just a suggestion.

And that's not good enough protection for something as fragile as democracy.
