Lead Campaigner @We_ownit - All the opinions expressed here are mine obviously, especially those of them you happen to disagree with.
I see #WhereIsSangitaMyska trending. It was such a pleasure to talk to her a few weeks ago about why it makes no sense for our water to be in private hands. She is a powerful voice for common sense. @LBC need to reinstate her.

BREAKING: Thames Water paid out millions in executive bonuses out of emergency loans. Plus, they promised parliament they would never do this. This is not a normal. Take Thames Water into public ownership. theguardian.com/business/2025/…
The cost of bringing Thames Water into public ownership? Ewan McGaughey explains for @Cmmonwealth that - the law says about £0 - the private shareholders should actually be paying US to be brought into public ownership, after all the damage they've done 👏👏👏
