From April 1st, water bills are rising … and so are we
Starmer and Reeves are siding with the private equity firms and hedge funds who own our water.
Together we’ll make the threat of mass, coordinated non-payment credible — and put this failed industry and government out of business.
31% price hike?
We pay ever-higher bills while water firms dump billions of litres of sewage in our rivers and seas – and hand billions of pounds to their shareholders.
But they are reliant on our compliance…
So what if we refuse to pay?
From the Poll Tax to Don’t Pay, refusing to pay en masse is a powerful act.
Right now, private water is vulnerable as the industry strains under a mountain of debt – if we act now, we can force the private profiteers out and take back our water.
Thousands have already joined
Starmer and Reeves are siding with the private equity firms and hedge funds who own our water, so we need many thousands more people to join us.
Through mass non-payment, we can protect each other from bill hikes, push back against greed of water bosses and put an end to this failing industry.
Dŵr Cymru isn’t quite publicly owned. It is structured as a not for profit, public benefit company, but still is privately owned.
I believe this is far better than the structure of the English companies, but definately had some failings, probably partly due to having such a large area to cover, but with comparatively fewer people to serve (meaning less revenue).
They are then put in a situation where the UK government expects investment to come in privately, but then the shareholders are more likely to invest in the English companies with returns.
