Shareholders get huge dividends as Yorkshire Water and other Utilities fail to tackle leaks and allow raw sewage to enter our water courses and seas. Ofwat has approved further planning work on an environmentally damaging new reservoir in the Upper Derwent Valley to support "bulk transfer agreement from Severn Trent to Yorkshire Water" - how about fixing the leaks first so the environment can be protected?
I look forward to my Monday Tribune-usually stimulating and with some uplifting images on the usual dismal and cold day that we get this time of year.The excellent image of the castle site needs some detail as regards existant castle remains.Yorkshire Water deserve a wacking big fine over their waste of water and apparent confusion over what actually has been going off.Bit of a coup for the Tribune I would suggest.
Great article: it certainly delivered a punch to Yorkshire Water. The company deserves it. And all their advice on conserving water! The hypocrisy of that is egregious.
What I'd like to know is, when a water company is fined, who picks up the tab? The company executives, or the shareholders, or is it us, the users of the water and payers of the bills? Just asking 🤔
Quality reporting on the YW piece 👏
