And it's law.
Who knew.

5 things Thames Water (or rather the American investment company that owns them) doesn’t want you to know about their new bullshit deal they’re angling for

As a Green, I’m appalled by the damage private water companies are doing—but even if the environment isn’t your priority, they’re still ripping us off. Watch this excellent explainer by Kat at #WeOwnIt, then write to your MP: water should be nationalised, and Thames Water must not dodge environmental fines until 2030. https://youtu.be/zeqr52JCy1w
