Last night only THREE peers in the House of Lords called for public ownership of England's water industry.
That was me, Jenny Jones & Natalie Bennett (Green Party) out of a membership of 827.
Public ownership officially opposed by Labour, Tories and LibDems.
Most people want to end the scandal.

The public wants water, energy and rail renationalised.
All the good ones seem to die suddenly or become embroiled in career ending scandal out of the blue.
There’s been a far right coup since 2016 as far as I’m concerned.

The theft of public money that has taken place under privatisation and the future theft implied by current industry plans are a national disgrace.
It’s a shame that the cheerleaders for privatisation fundamentally didn’t understand the risks of corporate ownership of public assets.
Why wouldn't you vote to stop the abuse of our water industry.
Let them collapse and take them
Why are there only 3 Lords with morals and common sense?
Who's benefitting? Who's been corrupted?
Govts/Parliament disconnected from the people. Legislators bludgeoned into silence by party bosses who are funded by big business.
You can have democracy or powerful corporations, but not both.
Here are some of the issues.

I think it's due to the lack of money the Gov has. There are no sellable assets and billions needed to invest.
Gov are hoping the companies can turn it around. Fact is, they will go pop and end up being a burden.
All for public ownership, how do we pay for it?
Horrible state
