Water bills to rise again in England, well above the rate of inflation.

90% of water industry is foreign owned. Shareholders count the returns, have no contact with leaks, water shortages or sewage dumping.

Customers fleeced. Privatisation is a scam.

New levels of depravity.

Morality, empathy & truth have no value to these genocidal psychopaths.

Hard to escape the feeling that we’re living through the endgame of capitalism.

We must end this system, or these monsters will end us all.
