Dripping inflow pipe at Richmond Treatment Works! For context it is a slow leak but does it suggest poor maintenance???

I’ve signed a letter calling for Angela Eagle and Ofwat to reject the last-ditch deal from Thames Water's creditors. Can you sign and share it as well? weownit.org.uk/act-now/sign...

The "Yorkshire Post" has further news on this. YW says the additional payment of £1.3m is "not performance related". Which begs a rather obvious question... YW's debt has risen from £4.2bn to £6.8bn. No river in Yorkshire is considered to be in good health. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

2/2 Given the scale of the crisis in the water sector, a purely regulatory approach is like putting a complaints box on the Titanic. Public ownership is the only real solution, as I told the Water Minister in parliament yesterday.

The revelations in Channel 4's 'Dirty Business' Docu Drama are not historical as they say! The EA officially registered 67 complaints in 2025 when the real number was 5000! Only 1/4 were attended. (FOI _ People's Commision ) So don't believe it when EA say they attend every reported incident -

Issue 144 of The Northern Eco is out! The water issue is highlighted but, as well as the official proposals, we also look at the People's Commission on the Water Sector - an academic-led approach. @sascampaigns.bsky.social @cleanilkley.bsky.social @saveourswale.bsky.social tinyurl.com/cjjw5aby

Until the Government takes seriously the demand for public ownership of our water, it will always be found wanting.

Yes @feargalsharkey.bsky.social @elnoracornstalk.bsky.social We remember it well. Great publicity for our SOS campaign. We are still no further forward though and @yorkshirewater.bsky.social still polluting into rivers in NY and demanding 41% increase in water costs over 5 years for the privilege!

Thanks @thenortherneco.bsky.social We are indeed angry! It seems impossible to hold these people to account. There is a basic problem with our democracy that this can be allowed to happen and we are powerless to stop it.
