Privatisation was never about efficency or creating a 'share owning democracy'

It was a simple device for transferring public assets into the pockets of rich corporations and further enriching them.

The con of free market, neo-libralist economics.

Stupid? Or malignantly corrupt?

Margaret Thatcher, the bitch, promised us water privatisation would improve it immensely! Yeah, right.

Not unbelievably stupid. Unbelievably greedy!!!

Regrettably, in the eyes of the rapacious plutocracy with insatiable avarice, water was precisely ripe for privatisation. the #ToryScum have been doing it since Reagan and Thatcher got into bed with each other.

The seeds of the neoreactionary fascism we see sprouting with such vigour in the USA.

Thatcher, another one of her know the cost projects and failure to understand the value of water. Complete failure to to understand how greedy companies can be.
