PRIVATISATION IS TOO EXPENSIVE. Approximately 1/3 of our water bills is spent on expensive debt and shareholder payouts. Under public ownership, that's money we can spend on fixing our broken infrastructure.

The government says they are looking to change the law to make it easy to take water into public hands The truth is that the water companies have already done enough to be taken over UNDER CURRENT LAWS
A tweet by Lord Prem Sikka: "We’re prepared to change the Insolvency law to reform water industry, says Angela Eagle.  That's a distraction.  Companies have over 1,200 criminal convictions.  Ministers can revoke their licence, place them in administration, followed by nationalisation."A tweet by We Own It "Lord Sikka is right.   Ofwat literally fined Thames Water last year for contravening its license conditions.  What more does the government want to see? Thames Water has done more than enough to warrant being brought into public hands under current laws?"

Happy #InverteFest! Octopus says trans rights 🐙
Digital drawing of an octopus against a black background. Its eight arms are winding and twisting about wildly. Its eyes are blue, its main body pink, and its arms transition from blue at the ends, through white to pink near the body to echo the colors of the trans pride flag. (Rotated so that the image is taller than it is wide to be more easily seen on a phone screen.)

By Aquarium botfrens.com/collections/69/content…
"By Aquarium" by Remedios Varo illustrates a surreal scene featuring an enigmatic figure draped in a vibrant cloak, holding a key and walking alongside a smaller, darker figure within a densely wooded area. Varo's characteristic style blends mystical and symbolic elements, reflecting her fascination with alchemy and the subconscious.

The public wants to see a real solution to the water crisis. Not public control, whatever Andy Burnham means by that. PUBLIC OWNERSHIP is the only real solution. If Andy Burnham thinks he can fudge this issue, he and his team better listen to campaigners now: vist.ly/5dt5x

Those who believe things like this are working hard at not understanding the finite options available to someone whose abuser has not been prosecuted, found guilty, etc. by the law. And how rarely those things happen to abusers, esp. high-status white male abusers.
