Ot water shortages

[animallittle3]

2.4bn litres of water per DAY is lost through leakage in the pipes .

Not one reservoir has been created since the industry was privatised in 1989 .

Wonder where all those profits are going ? , clearly not in investment .

26% of Yorkshire Water is owned by the government of Singapore.

10% of Thames Water is owned by the Chinese government.

Probably similar with the other water companies.

Would be better to have the British government running it IMO. Water and railways I'd nationalise.

They want to build one near Abingdon

The plans for the new reservoir have been kicked into the long ( dry) grass due to environmental objections
