£145,000 water bill for one north London house …

ONE north London house recently received a bill from Thames Water for £145,000

Thames repaid it as a goodwill gesture.

Not so long ago an elderly friend in a Crouch End flat received a bill from Thames for £4,000 but in that case, the refund was not made so promptly.

Customer bills and colossal borrowing—c. £20,000,000,000—by the grifters at Thames have funded meagre investment in infrastructure.

Meanwhile, estimates of the dividends paid by the English companies to their shareholders range between £55,000,000,000 to £75,000,000,000.

A month ago Jenny Jones wrote that she'd, refuse to pay the sewage charge in my bill while you pollute Britain’s rivers and coastlines.

When will the Labour government take this chronically failed utility back into public hands, as a "gesture of goodwill"?
