imagine being told not to drink your tap water because it contained parasites. That’s exactly what happened to thousands of people in Devon last year after contaminated water left more than 140 customers seriously ill. And the water company boss’s punishment? A £270,000 bonus as part of a pay package worth over £1 million. That’s privatised water in England: soaring bills, falling water quality, and huge rewards for the people responsible. Now politicians like Andy Burnham are talking about bringing water back into public ownership. [4] But warm words won’t fix a broken system. That’s why more than 23,000 of us have already signed the petition demanding that whoever becomes the next Prime Minister puts people before profit and brings our water back into public ownership. Will you join the fightback against bosses pocketing bonuses while pumping pollution and parasites into our water?
