They're too reliant on #OFWAT to handle the problems, but we all know OFWAT are feeble in enforcement of fines, the water companies challenge them, they'll pass on the costs to consumers, their management are not pernalised.
Wasn't OFWAT going to be replaced?

Five water companies demanded 2.7 billion pounds extra. The CMA gave them 463 million and rejected the rest. Customers face a 2.2% increase on top of 24% already approved. The government says root and branch reform is coming.

When this business model damages the country so badly and involves a key national utility why does government allow it? #KeirStarmer #EmmaReynolds #Ofwat #Water #PrivateEquity #business #EndSewagePollution
The corruption of the #watercompanies & the
collusion of #ofwat will never stop.
#Renationalisation is the only way forward. Don't believe when #UKLabour says it can't financially do so. Take back the companies with no compensation, sack the boards (& ofwat) & put a competent person in charge.
💥These fines rarely if ever get paid/shareholders rarely take money out of their pockets to pay them/invariably water companies negotiate some deal so that ultimately it doesn’t cost them a penny. #Ofwat needs to start revoking operating licences&govt needs to order them to start that process today💥

Unacceptable working practices of UK’s water companies are making people ill, profit comes first, yet successive governments & OFWAT float around like lame ducks.
STOP profiteering first & put the health & welfare of people first.

When I contacted them, there was nothing they could do except suggest a water meter. With 3 of us in the house, I'm not expecting that to save me much, but I'll give it a try.

Why does #ThamesWater want me to pay £41 a month when my usage is 80pence per day!? #OFWAT
If breaking a law has no consequences, then its not a law - just a suggestion.
And that's not good enough protection for something as fragile as democracy.
A lot of UK Watchdogs needs to be given sharper teeth & staff willing to use them.
The #ElectoralCommission is one. #OfCom & #OfWat are others
#ThamesWater wants to pollute ILLEGALLY for the next 15 years!
Like me, you can email #Ofwat now to say "NO"

If the water companies put the customer first instead of ring fencing their profits for themselves we would not be experiencing their highway robbery.
Consecutive governments have & are putting water companies before the people.

Water privatisation has failed in England & Wales. #SouthEastWater spent more on shareholder dividends than on infrastructure.
#EmmaReynolds and #Ofwat, bring South East Water into public ownership immediately.

I wonder if @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social @news.sky.com would take as much notice of #SouthEastWater if wasn't impacting on #TunbridgeWells and the very vocal wealthy residents #OFWAT #water #Kent #bbcbreakfast
For those of us who have South East Water as our provider, we still have a hosepipe ban which is very objectionable and goes against the guidance of OFWAT on their website.
