Privatization of our daily requirements play a large part in our high costs of living. Electric gas and also water.
Now we find that during the years profiteering at the customers' expense has caused a financial shortfall for a water company. Yes, that's about right, profit to give shareholders a huge return; and of course high-ranking staff ridiculous bonuses.
Now income is required and where is to come from? Shareholders, but they kick up stink, because they don't want to give money back; yet did they make any form of comments while they were collecting our hard-earned cash? No. A government needs to stop this disgraceful behaviour.
