The impending rise in #WaterBills in the UK is allowed because the #capitalist attitude to causes of #inflation is completely hypocritical.
Cajolery for the rich, a rod of iron for the poor.
Nearby village lost water supply yesterday and pressure has dropped here. Local pub has lost water supply now.
Wonder how many people, on local FB page, who are losing their shit about water companies paying CEO bonuses, voted or would have voted Tory in 1987.

Err, no. F off.
Start by clawing back the £67bn you’ve given away in dividends that should’ve been invested in the long term security of the network over the last 30 years.
Why should the majority who haven’t benefitted from privatisation be made to pay now? What is this, some sort of money laundering scheme ffs?
