It's not just about scrapping Ofwat. The government should look at the whole package of Lib Dem proposals, like transforming the water companies into Public Benefit Corporations to stop dumping sewage and invest in their infrastructure before paying out to shareholders.
Water company bosses have pocketed millions in bonuses while ruining our rivers with filthy sewage. This scandal needs to end. We need to scrap Ofwat and end all sewage dumping in bathing waters by 2030.
The UK needs to stop all arms exports to the Israeli Government - today.
Hundreds of thousands of people in Gaza are being deliberately starved to death. Aid convoys are coming under fire. Children are being shot by soldiers. Schools and hospitals are being bombed. What further war crimes need to take place before PM Netanyahu is sanctioned?
'It is a broken industry where very powerful people have run rings around the regulators and effectively stuck two fingers up at the British people,' says @timfarron MP. A major report into the water industry has been published. trib.al/a4wtzxy 📺 Sky 501
Wanna know what the @UKLabour Government’s policy will be like in 6 months? Look at @LibDems policy now! Example 4746284638…. Young Europeans may be allowed to stay in UK for longer than a year thetimes.com/uk/politics/ar…
At last, the Government has listened to the Liberal Democrats. Since 2022, we have been calling for Ofwat to be scrapped. But ministers must not stop here, and we will continue to hold them accountable. Britain now needs a new, effective regulator, to stop the sewage scandal.

Spot on. And not just the Beeb - @Nigel_Farage gets a very easy ride because he is treated as fellow commentator and fellow mainstream media critic of main parties. Never gets challenged on his Brexit role. Rarely on actual policy. Well said @EdwardJDavey
Watch @EdwardJDavey call out the BBC for their failure to hold Nigel Farage to account.
Be my guest, please.
Sometimes silence speaks loudest of all.
In government, the Conservatives campaigned against giving children free school meals. Now they are campaigning to keep the two child cap. The Conservatives are determined to keep children in poverty.
The two child benefit cap is fair. It needs to stay.
Happy Hampshire Day! Along with my @LibDems MP colleagues @DannyVet and Alex Brewer I’m so proud to represent a Hampshire constituency in Westminster
