Pissing and shitting it down the drain.
Edit.
Literally,into rivers and the sea. They've been helped enormously by the government  in that respect tho.

Some leaks go months without repairs, stop ripping your customers off and lining shareholders pockets, another fine example of failed privatisation

It's OK, Starmer will be PM soon, and then the water companies will be back in public hands.

Oh, wait a minute.

Liked the Daily Mash headline on this.
'Give us £96million or we'll pump sh*t into your home'

I can’t get my head around them borrowing billions to pay their share holders a dividend! Me thinks that sort of behaviour is worthy of a 15 stint in Prison.

So customers are to be billed for any network maintenance, while the scam continues.
Both Tory parties think this is just good business practice!
