So we’re paying a private company to buy our water utility, so that they can ‘have another go’ and ‘promise to do better than the last lot’.
Great…
Oh great. I’m sure they will fix everything and won’t just spunk away all our money to shareholders and management while the water and sewage system collapses. Foreign owners are much more likely to look out for UK interests than a nationalised company. Is it possible to actually die of sarcasm?
Yes, you get thrown into the pit they threw Nicolas III into. Death by Tzar Chasm.
How about making it owned by the workers or the customers? Why should people have to line corporate pockets to have access to drinking water?
Because of Margaret Thatcher.
