Once again, another classic example of how privatisation doesn’t work. The government will see this country on its knees just so they don’t have to lose face.

Casey Tremain, PortsmouthEnergy should not be privately owned as profits go to shareholders first. Also those on the lowest incomes and on pre-pay meters pay the most for their fuel.

Paul Thomas, HeanorRe-nationalised power could act as a flywheel for the economy. Nationalised power could provide jobs, training, economical energy for business and private individuals.

Join the new national movement to #takebackwater 💧✊💧 It’s time to turn the tide on 40 years of privatisation and failure.
💧💧 We're building a movement to Take Back Water.
On July 5th we’re giving the new government 100 days to commit to public ownership.
↪ If the government refuses to act, we’ll launch the first wave of financial disobedience from Oct 14th, targeting the water industry by withholding our payments for 90 days.
↪ We’ll launch bigger and longer waves of financial disobedience for as long as it takes whilst building our collective power in every community.
↪ This is a low risk action and we need to take it collectively. Before we strike, we’ll help you join a “strike circle” – a group of at least 5 people striking in your region – so you can support each other.

↪ We want to build large citizens assemblies across the country to discuss, debate, and participate in the creation of a new democratic plan for real public ownership of water as a service and not a commodity.
↪ But we know without a leverage we are powerless. Co-ordinated, mass financial disobedience is a way where we can make it clear to parasitical share holders and private equity companies that the days of privatised water are over. ... See MoreSee Less
