It's email/letter writing time again.
This time about the outrageous plans creditors of Thames Water are lobbying the UK government to accept ("Let us keep making profit, write of much of our debt and let us keep polluting rivers, beaches and shores").
My MP is not in the Thames Valley, but the water company in their region is likely to see this as a precedent, so not acting stores up trouble ahead.

Petition to Uk parliament:
To make water a non profit making national asset that ensures we have a secure water infrastructure that ensures our water security for future generations.
We believe it has become very clear that funding capital infrastructure improvements has been a lower priority than shareholder profit and CEO salaries and bonuses by all the privatised water companies. Therefore, to ensure that our citizens water needs are met, now and in the future, water companies should be re-nationalised to ensure our country's water security in the future.

An 8-year-old girl died from E. coli, and her family suspects a Devon beach. This tragedy highlights concerns over water firms releasing raw sewage, similar to the Post Office scandal's public anger.

End the sewage pollution scandal

We're sick of it. Sick of the lies, sick of the greed, and sick of a system rigged against us. This is a scandal and this dirty business must end.

Whilst bills rise, water companies extract billions and fail to invest. Whilst they get rich,...
