gooday. I think it is stupid to go on wasting water. we flush drinking water down the toilet. WE should be building holding tanks in new buildings to collect water to flush toilets and wash with. drinking water which has to be processed should be conserved only for drinking. older houses factories should be incouraged to build holding tanks like in Australia. but this is not good for water companies because we would use less of there water thus hurting their proffits. Thay would rather we use more water increasing their profets. If we incourage the conservation of fresh drinking water this would help with flooding. being diverted into thousands of holding tanks instead of pouring into the flood dranige system. The idea of flooding large areas to build a mew res in oxfordshire is an criminal act and should be stoped. if this money was put into incouraging homeowners and big buisnesses to build holding tanks for general water usage you would not have hose pipe bans or flooding. as I have said this is not an option if you are a share holder as this does not increase water usage but reduce it and that is the key we can not keep flooding good usable land.
Thames Water has installed a water meter outside of my property without properly restoring the public road pavement in a conservation area.
They were also asking me to pay GBP 725 per annum for water on a terraced house in central London, with charges based on a supposed property value rather than on average water usage.
because they are making a lot of profit and missing all their targets in not fixing enough leaks to stop them wasting the water which they then charge us higher prices on account of TW losing all that water.
They expect me to pay full price for not being able to use as much water as they keep hiking prices up.
Because the long-term future of a precious resource is in the hands of people who only think of immediate profit and who are willing to let that resource dwindle in order to raise prices.
I think its an absolute disgrace that we should be made to pay for water only to be told we cannot us it. I think some of the 6million salary paid to the chief executive should be used to fixing all the leaking pipes around London.How can they continue to be allowed to make huge profits when they are not even making their targets!!!!!!! It makes me very cross!!!!!!
They have just anounced a drought order the water leaks are a scandal ,but the point, you are all missing is the less water you use the more profits for them its time to march to their offices and disrupt there german scam.now lets organise this now. The masses will always win
Water should belong to the commons, not corporations who only care about profits. Renationalise water, fix the leaks, make sure water is affordable and accessible to all.
This summer's water crisis demonstrates beyond doubt that Thames Water lack either the will or the basic competence to manage our most precious resource. As a private monopoly they are under no pressure to do anything unless OFWAT acts.
the leaks the fears the constant "dripping" on about drought year after year yet letting millions of gallons flow away is now beyond boring its become totally unnacceptable... standpipes WHATEVER NEXT
