Water firm given £450m subsidies at same time it paid £1.5bn to shareholders The news has triggered renewed calls for public ownership.

South West Water is vandalising our waterways whilst being propped up by huge govt subsidies. A broken business model that rewards shareholders, but punishes bill payers and the #environment.

This has to stop 🛑

Starmer: end the Thames Water farce now There is no crock of equity gold at the end of the rainbow
