We could nationalise water for £20 – here’s how youtu.be/tnqPZNNx_rY?... English water companies are financially broken. So why is Labour ruling out nationalisation? They say it would cost too much. That's wrong. It could cost less than a round of drinks.

Imagine if London was a Commons: a city where the land was ours, managed and used for public benefit. Space for people to come together, for food growing, truly affordable housing, more parks and green spaces, more biodiversity, less pollution. A better city is possible! See you on the 27th July
