Water bills to rise by £123 a year in April

1. It wouldn’t be so bad if we knew that dividends for share holders and bonuses for executives were stopped until the problems with sewage discharge etc were fixed.

   Although 123 is a fair whack of money for lots of households and 0 choice of who to get supply from.

2. Just take them back into public ownership. Right now , FFS.

3. Wouldn’t be so bad if you could just compare the meerkat and switch water provider, but alas the only way to do that with water is move to a different county.

   The fact this is allowed as these firms plead poverty whilst simultaneously hurling dividends at shareholders and bonuses at hapless bosses is mind boggling.

4. “We’re sorry for cutting corners and pumping shit into your rivers, so now you get to pay extra so that we won’t pump shit into your rivers anymore, promise!”

5. Money we could be paying to our country.

6. Why do we put up with this. It is so blatant.

7. “We paid out bonuses and dividends instead of doing repairs, now the repairs need doing urgently so we need 123 quid a year more to pay bonus dividends AND for the pipes to be fixed”

   Absolute jokers

8. Council tax up 25%, energy price cap up, car tax & insurance up, mortgage rates up, food inflation… wonder why the economy is crashing hmmm
