Water companies have racked up 1,135 criminal convictions for illegal sewage dumping ever since they were privatised 35 years ago – yet they still keep pumping more sewage into our rivers and seas.
Ever since they were privatised, these private companies have proven they can’t be trusted with public services. Our Freedom of Information requests show water companies brazenly breaking the law for decades, racking up £164m in fines for flooding OUR waters with sewage. And now they demand WE pay to fix the broken infrastructure THEY should have been investing in – all while they hand out fat bonuses and dividends to CEOs and shareholders. These aren’t just fines – they’re crimes. These companies MUST be brought to justice!
