It does not and never will benefit the public.
The amount of billions they have siphoned off is legalized corruption on the grandest scale and the cheeky cunts have the audacity to increase our bills to pay the billions required to update the system that should have maintained all along.
Decades of profiteering and laughing all the way to the bank.
The UK govt knew all this though, that was the plan. Get rich off the public. Anybody with any sense knows there should be caveats in place to ensure profits come after the system is kept running and invested in. All of our water companies aside from Scottish water are foreign owned.
Corruption in govt is as old as time itself, it's just now they don't even try to hide it anymore.
