A year ago today, @labourlewis.bsky.social brought his Private Members' Bill on #water to #Parliament. It aimed to fix our broken system by giving the #public a say over who should own it.Since then, the call for #publicownership has only grown.Watch his speech: www.youtube.com/watch?v=5gIO...

Great to hear from the real people the @channel4tv.bsky.social #DirtyBusiness was based. Julie Maughan powerful speech to Env Minister and Rob the whistleblower who left his career of 21 years to tell the truth about the Env Agency 👏 very moving let’s hope they finally listen #publicOwnership

Congratulations, Clive! 👏🏼
Proud of you and all others who are driving this forward.
We absolutely must get our water back into public ownership as private companies have made a right mess of things...and overcharged us for it!
Clean water is essential!
#PublicOwnership #water #ThamesWater

The public are getting sick while sewage is pumped into our rivers and seas, and water companies keep getting away with it.

This cannot continue. Water must be run for public good, not private profit.

#CleanWater #PublicOwnership

Great to meet Kirsty from the Sewage Campaign Network, a coalition of grassroots groups leading the fight against sewage pollution and driving the huge public push for cleaner, safer water.

They're calling for cleaner, cheaper, fairer water in public ownership. #PublicOwnership #ProtectOurRivers

I care. We need our essential utilities back under sovereign control. Wasn’t that what Brexit was for? Take back control, reclaiming sovereignty? Well what better way than nationalising water and national grid.

Bill would let social‑housing public development authorities use housing‑cooperation tools EHB 1687 would extend the state's housing cooperation law to include social housing public development authorities, enabling local governments to support social housing PDAs with tools now available to public housing authorities.

A groundbreaking bill could transform social housing in Washington, empowering local governments to expand affordable options for all income levels!

Headline: Public ownership is popular Water - 82% Energy - 71% Buses - 66% NHS - 87% Rail - 76% Royal Mail - 75% Polling by YouGov, June 2024

🤔You want your government to be popular?

💡Why not try doing something that's popular with the public.

Most of us want to see public ownership across a range of public services.

It was true at the last general election. It's true now.

Water bosses in England exploiting bonus loophole face crackdown Exclusive: Ministers to act after last year’s legislation ‘outwitted’ by failing firms paying millions to executives

Privatisation of essential services has failed the public. The only answer to curb bonuses for greedy bosses is to take back control of the water companies and bring into #PublicOwnership for #SaferSeas and #CleanRivers

The privatisation of essential services is a failed experiment.

The solution is

#PublicOwnership

Defections from Labour councillors in the South East region & nationwide prove that the @greenparty.org.uk is here to steer the country from the centrist continuation of Conservative privatisation and financialisation to #publicownership & people-centred #ecopopulism

And again.
The water mafia can always find a way around Labour's half ar$ed regulatory system.
Bonuses = retention payments.

Only #PublicOwnership will stop the corruption.

Thames Water's creditors are locked in talks with Ofwat after asking for permission to pollute illegally until 2035-40. (Really!)
Please can you help stop their illegal pollution plans with a donation to @weownit.org.uk? Thank you

Making the most of the rain by saving water from my dryer or my doormat to water indoor plants or clean cat litter trays. It's a great way to keep the bills down.
Although, they'd be down a lot more if water companies didn't pass on the fines they get for polluting our waterways.

⚡️ ENERGY PRICE CAP

There is no comfort in today’s announcement for the millions of people struggling to heat their homes this winter.

@unitetheunion.bsky.social has shown that £500 of every energy bill goes straight to energy company profits. #PublicOwnership 1/2 ⤵️

Here's Sophie from We Own It presenting your signatures at the DHSC offices today.

That's 17,000 of you telling Rachel Reeves and the government more private finance in our NHS would be a disaster. #NHS #publicownership

I am an American citizen married to an English woman and living in the UK. My admonition to UK citizens is to fight to your very last breath to keep US-style healthcare out of your country, and to defend your NHS as if your life depends on it. Because it will. When my wife was living with me in the US, I couldn't get her to go to a doctor, because she was afraid of how much it would cost. And we HAD health insurance. I have witnessed your NHS treat her for a basal cell carcinoma, via surgery and subsequent radiation therapy. And this year she was diagnosed with mitral valve failure, which was brilliantly repaired by an NHS cardiac surgeon. Her care has been exemplary. And it hasn't cost us a single penny. When I tell my US friends all of this, their jaws drop. They would literally do almost ANYTHING to have such a system available to them. DO NOT let the US healthcare companies get their fingers into your NHS. You will regret it for generations. (Screenshot from The Guardian)

This is so powerful.

Private healthcare has already contaminated our NHS too much. Don't let it go any further.

Should we stop paying for this and the sewage in our rivers?

Rachel Reeves can beat borrowing pressures – and this time there really is no alternative Government borrowing hits five-year high. Reeves faces structural costs from privatisation – reclaiming public assets is the only solution.

UK borrowing hits five-year high – there is no alternative: public ownership and wealth taxes are the answer.
