The America vulture capitalists now running Thames Water are trumpeting Liz Barber, former CEO of Yorkshire Water, as the new saviour of the company. Would that be the same Liz Barber who put up customer's bills by 41% and then refused to give up her own bonus? Of course it would. Liz Barber was paid £1.32 million in her final year as CEO of Yorkshire Water. itv.com/news/calendar/2024-1…

Mistakenly switched to a plastic surgery op.😳 A 41 year old beauty is having a face lift. I cant help but think that this is all driven by insecurity. She's beautiful. She doesn't need anything done. #PriceOfPerfection

Going from bad to worse... A matter of weeks ago the stretch of the River Thames at Ham and Kingston designated as a bathing water was reporting E coli levels 6 times over the legal limit, now blue-green algae has appeared. Short version, stay the hell out of the river.
Warning - blue-green algae detected ⚠️ The Environment Agency has confirmed the presence of potentially toxic blue-green algae in the River Thames in and around the designated bathing water site at Ham and Kingston.

A prelude of what is to come. Just you wait until this drought breaks and that inevitable deluge of rain comes and with it million of tons of sh*t getting dumped into our rivers and onto our beaches.
It rained for an hour or so overnight, the first rain we've seen in quite some time. Yet it was enough for @SouthernWater to release sewage in Hythe, thus rendering their beach unsafe to swim today.

Public anger at the failing water companies is at boiling point. "Tougher" regulation, as @labourlewis says, isn't going to sort out the mess they've left us in. We need water in public hands, starting with Thames Water. Take action today: vist.ly/5f4ed

Mr G is watching yet another #JohnLennon documentary. I could easily do #Mastermind now- I've taken it all in. And he has the cheek to tell me I watch too much of my 'crap'. At least I like John.

💧 A question for the water companies this morning… If customers’ existing bills already included money for maintaining pipes and infrastructure, why are consumers now being asked to pay substantially more to fix them? Investment is essential, but so is accountability. Consumers deserve to know where the money has gone. @thameswater @SouthWestWater @AnglianWater @sewateruk @Ofwat

My daughter just sent me this. Her 32 year old friend with #RLS has been prescribed #pramipexole by a UK GP. When will the negligence & ignorance stop @rcgp? #DopamineAgonists are last resort meds after all other meds have failed. Do GPs no longer research or look up @NICEComms

We refuse to pay for more sewage in our rivers, hosepipe bans, service cuts, dividends and bonuses Andy Burnham must say no to any bill hike. IF private water companies can't survive without it, let them go bust 82% of us want public ownership of water. We've had enough of privatisation

I'll bet you these projects will never see a large chunk of that money. We pay for the system through our bills. Yet almost 1/3 of them go to returns for investors and creditors. We pay for the infrastructure, for the debt, for the profits. And they keep asking for more. The only way to end this is public ownership.

Water companies are trying to hike your water bills AGAIN. Privatisation is not affordable. @andyburnham must block these bill hikes. Let the water companies that can't survive without hiking our bills GO BUST. Then we take them into public hands for nothing.

When they are not busy paying themselves huge bonuses, Thames Water's bosses are trying to convince the public it would be unaffordable to take them into public ownership Of course the experts completely disagree Demand Andy Burnham nationalise Thames Water: vist.ly/5enci
