Bangersanmash 5,199 Posted May 28 Report Share Posted May 28 Well guys 120 million quid fine for Themes Valley Waters for dumping sewerage water in the river Themes. Let's hope all other water companies get the same. Says its biggest fine given out to date. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chartpolski 27,893 Posted May 28 Report Share Posted May 28 They are just about bankrupt so how are they going to pay the fine ? Will the shareholders pay it or will it be added to consumers bills ? I know what my guess would be …… Cheers. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Arry 24,804 Posted May 28 Report Share Posted May 28 What pisses on my chips is when it rains they pollute the rivers and beaches then if it don't rain oh we don't have enough water there a hose pipe ban. They have not built a new reservoir since privatisation. Brixham area poisoned with cryptosporidium people sick for weeks. They have taken the money for year without investing enough now its catching up on them. CEO salaries are ridiculous. The South West Water CEO, Susan Davy, whose title is actually Chief Executive of Pennon Group (the owner of South West Water), had a total pay package of £860,000 in 2023-24, a 58% increase from the previous year. This included a base salary of £511,000 and a share bonus of £298,000. Additionally, Davy forgave her annual performance bonus, which would have been £237,000, for the second year in a row, according to the BBC. Cheers Arry Quote Link to post Share on other sites

pesky1972 5,634 Posted May 28 Report Share Posted May 28 I’d like to see everyone who approved the privatisation of water provision and waste services, as well as anyone who’s received a dividend cheque or bonus payment from one of these companies, drowned in piss and sh!t. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

No they said customers wont be paying for it the owners pockets that it's going to come out of. The ones that give the Themes water money. Plus something about a U.S company wanting to put 4 billion dollars into the Themes water company. Why they want to do that a dont know lol. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
