"Thames Water creditors prepare ‘final’ offer as Burnham faces nationalisation decision."
It really is time someone put this company out of its misery.

I enjoyed this book. It’s really a reference book to dip into, rather than a narrative overview of Brian Epstein in 1967. Still, an informative look into those who inhabited Brian’s world.

Just like you and I commercial companies have credit ratings.
S&P, one of the big global corporate credit rating agencies have just downgraded Thames Water's rating to CCC-.
Meaning? Get your money the hell out of there, if you invest this company highly likely you're gonna loose it. Run like the wind bullseye.
Meanwhile 15 million customers are trapped with nowhere to run.

This is what we've come to.
A retired couple had to spend £1m of their own money taking both the @EnvAgency and @NaturalEngland to the High Court simply to force both of these charlatans to do their job, safeguard one of our nation's most legally heavily protected bits of countryside.
And the environment charities does what exactly?

Thames Water is due to run out of money (again) over the next few weeks. A year and a half ago it was given a £3 billion bailout now it's asking for another £2.4 billion.
We really are being taken for mugs.

So good to see @BrendaBKennedy down at the launch of the @SoundOfBelfast festival in the @OhYeahCentre tonight. Brenda’s written a beautiful book about the life of her husband, the great #BapKennedy, and I’m delighted to be hosting the launch night on November 9th. Can’t wait.

"Southern Water fined £2.4m over multiple incidents of sewage pollution in Kent."
That of course is on top of the £7.1 million they were fined back in July, the £90 million they were fined back in 2021, or the 107 environmental offences they've been found guilty of in the last 15 years.
Really, what is the point?

Ladies and gentlemen I give you the very fabulous Michael Dugher and Blackbird, well, well worth a listen, go on spoil yourself, you know you want to… 👏👏👏
Never mind Beyoncé… A while back, I recorded a version of Blackbird by The Beatles, produced by Cameron Craig, the 2X Grammy Award winning engineer. Today it is ‘released’ on all streaming services. Check it out!

"Public ownership of water industry could save £22billion, MPs are told."
Oh look, you were lied to, nationalising the water industry isn't going to cost you billions, it could in fact save you £22 billion.
Who'd have guessed it.

"Thames Water will have incurred almost £2bn in financing costs and advisory fees over the 18 months to the end of September".
So here's what it's come to, it's now being demanded, not asked but demanded, that Thames Water's customers are being forced to fund their continued exploitation and abuse at the hands of American vulture capitalists.
What a world. Time to put an end to it, time to put Thames Water and its customers out of their misery.
