He's right though buddy. Just look at Thames Water for proof of it's flaw, forgetting the fact that water, power and steel are strategic industries that no nation should privatise with a national golden share... if at all. |  |

You do seem to like to spend our money, how about cutting wages/ bonuses, and before anyone pipes in with well we need to pay big big money for the best then may I suggest asking for the money back because we've been had. |  |

Not all of their Untouchabe top brass will lose out , but many others with savings at stake will be at risk of they sink . No wonder the UK Government is hell bent on bailing them out too .

In it it's always the public that needs to pay more with him, nevermind what we/they always pay. |  |

Thames water is nothing to do with Wales, there's a massive wastage of money in all industries and Welsh water is one of them, to many to end staff getting massively overpaid for very little output, the COE's of these energy companies is the same the BG head sharang earns a footballs wage that's well publicised and for what exactly, the general public are being robbed in this country and for very little reward, look around you and you'll see it, the roads, public services etc. |  |

it's the same situation everywhere, water, gas, electric, NHS, local councils, we pay massive wages to people not up to the job. Hell even the WRU has been ruined by the fuddy duddy suits. Time for a reset. Unfortuantely, Max, we WILL have to pay for it but if we can get things to a reasonable standard we need better rules in place so dividends, bonuses and massive pay rises won't happen unless the business is really in rude health |  | |  |

It hasn't I live on my own, so my usage is pretty steady but the standing charge is scandalous almost as much as my water usage |  |

Don't need to lock them up, just give them decent contracts with non negotiable terms, if they miss their objectives terminate the contracts. |  |

Yes we do. Executives constatly sh*t on us because they face no real consequence. desroying our environment deliberately needs custodial sentencing as a deterent. |  |
