British Steel could be nationalised by the government So why can't Thames Water, the energy grid, rail rolling stock, Royal Mail be "on the table" too? 💧⚡️🚄📮 All of these are strategic national infrastructure

This is not the solution 🤬 Changing the sign on the regulator’s office building will not reverse the damage of 35 years of privatisation! ONLY public ownership will do that. ✅

The government is abolishing Ofwat But ruling out PUBLIC OWNERSHIP, normal in 9 out of 10 countries "Blaming Ofwat alone is like blaming the satnav for driving off a cliff when the road was built that way" @labourlewis 💯 The problem is privatisation independent.co.uk/news/uk/politi…

Labour promised us the NHS "will always be publicly owned and publicly funded" We've written to Wes Streeting to oppose the "Public Private Partnership" in 10 year NHS plan 👇🏥 PFI = £13 billion actual investment in NHS has cost nearly *£80 billion*🤯 weownit.org.uk/news/open-lett…

I've just signed up to the We Own It email newsletter - they're campaigning for public ownership of public services. @We_OwnIt weownit.org.uk/public-ownersh…

📣Experts are saying it. 🌹Labour MPs are saying it. 🤑Even the CEO of Thames Water has said it. 💪The case for public ownership of Thames Water has never been stronger. 😶The government's arguments have never been weaker. PUBLIC OWNERSHIP NOW!

Stop forcing councils to sell off the family silver Every one of these public assets made people’s lives better, every one was something that local communities owned collectively Cuts and austerity are a false economy @FerretScot theferret.scot/councils-sell-…

Why is the Government STILL protecting vulture capitalists over us? Louder for those at the back........public ownership NOW! #hosepipeban #sewagecrisis #water

#Thames #Water boss admits temporary nationalisation could cost the taxpayer nothing! 😮 We are winning the fight for public ownership. Now the government must act! Sign our petition to take back Thames 👇

Here's what Thames Water could look like in public ownership weownit.org.uk/news/what-coul… Bring it on!

Astonishing that the government has allowed this privatised failure to stagger on for so long 9 out of 10 countries run water in public ownership, England can do the same Scottish Water is in public ownership and invests £72 more per household per year theguardian.com/business/2025/…

🚨 We demand an urgent moratorium on 'open access' contracts, which waste hundreds of millions per year of public money. @railandroad is ignoring the economic threats and this is @Heidi_Labour's last chance to protect the future of Great British Railways weownit.org.uk/news/stop-priv…

Thames Water is dead in the water. ☠️ The govt has allowed the company to stagger on like a profit-thirsty zombie. 🧟 Steve Reed must immediately cut the debt in half by taking Thames into special administration and then permanent public ownership. 💧 Sign our petition 👇

It’s the failure to actively and openly follow-through on what are widely supported policies, such as the public ownership of key assets, that is undermining this government; it creates doubt about their honest commitment to change and serving the public good rather than profit.

📢 Read our letter to @Heidi_Labour demanding urgent action to stop @RailandRoad awarding new contracts to private companies 🚆💸 Allowing 'open access' operators to continue will completely undermine our new publicly-owned #GreatBritishRailways 📩 weownit.org.uk/news/stop-priv…

🚨8 in 10 of us back full public ownership of rail. And the government is working on delivering it. But @railandroad is still letting private firms in - disrespecting democracy😡 @Heidi_Labour, impose a moratorium on new 'open-access'. Our letter👉 vist.ly/3xwvp

As Thames Water announce hosepipe ban starting next week, remember that between them water co’s lose over a trillion litres a year to leaks. Here’s how Thames perform on losing drinking water (DI - the total volume of drinking water entering the companies distribution system).

Summers are getting hotter ☀️ We can all help save water 💧 But it's INFURIATING that private water companies start hosepipe bans while - letting 1/5 of water leak away - pouring raw sewage into rivers - spending 1/3 of your water bill on debt + dividends PUBLIC OWNERSHIP NOW

Great to see @KONPNorthEast at their stall @DurhamGala! So many brilliant members doing incredible work across the country.

Thames Water bosses have now paid themselves £2.5 million from an emergency bailout loan intended to stabilise the company! Private greed is out of control. 🤑 We need public ownership for the benefit of households and the environment. 👍 Sign our petition below 👇

What will it take to end the failure of private ownership of water? On Saturday 19 July, we're inviting you to join us and an incredible line up of experts from think tanks, trade unions and local anti-sewage pollution campaigns to discuss this question👇
