Water bosses are just blatantly being like supervillains at this point, huh?
This is why ‚bonus‘ bans are pointless
It needs to be a total compensation cap
A job enhancement scheme installment.
A standard wage consignment addition.
A rectification of compensation package.
I’m sure there’s plenty of ways they could make up bullshit alternatives.
It’s clearly just a bonus. Claiming it’s a payment to retain important leadership figures is ridiculous when they’re failing as badly as they are. The issue is that they’re failing their customers and the environment, but they’re not failing the shareholders. This is just another clear sign that privatisation has failed and we need to nationalise it all.
Water boss sounds like something out of the Mad Max universe.
Aren’t these monopolies? You can’t change supplier unless you change area?
Do we not have anti-monopoly laws here? Also, why is a basic commodity for profit anyway?
Fuck these people.
All water companies need to be fined onto oblivion and then nationalised.
Lol.
The wealth disparity in this country is a joke.
>Mark Thurston, chief executive of industry giant Anglian Water, pocketed the “retention” payment as part of near £1.86million package for last year. He also banked more than £450,000 this month under a separate scheme
Am sorry. What ?
Had the wettest start to the year and now he imposes a hosepipe ban…. Great
I thought [Keith Chegwin](https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcT1BsE9tEp3FSY60tNolNSiJ1_rr3_ifMtaBk5TR3JKExvV5q6hig1AbhEKprGP8Es-xDjSSRlzHSO4lzm8JmHk-VOzTfyUY_MPQRKuyeIv&s=10) had returned for a minute.
You’d think with all that money he’d get a decent haircut.
Should be fined out of existence. Make the water service public again
Can someone explain to me why it’s so hard for the government to actually do something about this?
Like is it hard, or do Labour and Conservative care that little is just virtue signaling
I wonder why they want to fight nationalisation?
As a customer, perhaps we all need to stop paying our bills, all at once in protest. Or maybe pop round his house and make our displeasure obvious and loud. Commenting on here while entertaining will not change the abhorrent behaviour of these types.
Great system we have in this country isn’t it…. And it’s the same in every fuckn sector…. Wasn’t privatisation a great idea
All these failing companies that are on the rob need to be told, there will be no bonus payments until bills are driven down and standards are met. Now is the time for real leadership. Act on our behalf.
It’s disgusting what salary they get. The job isn’t that difficult….. and why don’t their staff get a bonus for staying? ……and now we have a hosepipe ban!
Same as it ever was.

disgusting…. fix 75% of leaks then you *may* have a bonus
Fair is fair. If you hire a thief and he steals billions for you and you’re getting off scot free, it seems mean not to slip the guys going all the work a few mil.

In Yorkshire the boss was paid a **£660,000** „consultation fee“ by the company that owns Yorkshire Water.
How have they been allowed to do this for so many years?
Why haven’t parliament put a stop to this robbery?
No wonder faith in politics is eroding.
Honestly it’s quite easy what needs to happen. Enforce the pollution and spills correctly, ensure they have to pay significant monetary penalties, watch as they cannot pay anymore and ask shareholders for more money, continue the cycle until they go bankrupt and then nationalise them.
It’s about time we started speaking with our wallets. I mean, what are they gonna do if we all stopped paying our bills?
Utility company bosses getting massive payouts confuse me.
They aren’t ‚performance-related‘ as engineers and lower-paid staff do all the maintenance, repairs and customer interfacing. These people just hide at the top.
Being a resource anything needs, why are there even people in charge of it?
Anglian Water put a hosepipe ban on us, and still have millions of litres in leaks everywhere they can’t be bothered fixing.
From their reports . [https://www.anglianwatergroup.co.uk/our-group/osprey-financing](https://www.anglianwatergroup.co.uk/our-group/osprey-financing)
**Revenue up 19.7%**
• The two key drivers of the revenue increase of £357 million were annual price increases as set out in the
F**inal Determination (£310 million) and consumption being up year on year as a result of the extended periods of hotter than average temperatures in 2025 (£21 million)**, the remainder coming from a number of. other movements.
Net debt before derivatives up 5.0%
• **Net debt has increased by £527 million p**artly as a result of our continuing investment in our capital. programme and the accretion of our index-linked debt.
Corporate vampires. What next – tax the air we breathe ?
Dang, almost as if you guys shouldn’t have privatized your water utilities huh?
So I would get in trouble if my filtering reed bed, which is only grey water that has already passed through a sewage treatment plant, coming out >97% pure before the reeds then overflows a few litres after weeks of rain.
But this cunt dumps raw sewage at will and gets rewarded for it.
So if I just connected straight to the river, bypassing the treatment and the reeds would I get paid? Because that sounds much simpler and cheaper.
I say again: water company licences should be subject to a points system like driver’s licence. Acquire X many penalty points for breaking the law or ignoring the regulator and your licence is cancelled.
You could say its „Water Retention“.
And nothing will b done because fining rich cunt businesses just means they hike up our prices and as a someone who is forced to use them in the South East, we are the ones who get shafted.
Nationalise them, full stop.
7.7 billion poinds in debt. Handed out 4.6 billion pounds as dividends in ten years up to 2022, the most of any water company during that time. Handed out approximately 12 billion pounds since privatisation.
Exactly as the tories intended. A vehicle for moving money from you, to „the right people“
