«La moitié des bénéfices d’#HydroQuébec allant au gouvernement du Québec, ce dernier accusait un manque à gagner de 3,9 milliards $ en laissant l’éolien au secteur privé. [..]

Pire encore, la plus grande proportion de ces milliards allait quitter le #Québec. En effet, 72 % du premier appel d’offres de 1 000 mégawatts avait été raflé par des entreprises non québécoises.»

The majority of UK voters including Tories want key utilities such as water and rail to be nationalised.

#Nationalisation now seems to be something the majority of #voters would like to see in tree key sectors... I wonder what the #Labour Party thinks about all of this?

Or perhaps we should be asking what the Labour Party think the Right-wing #media will think?

But the conclusion is pretty stark, voters do not think privatisation of these state assets was a success!

Make Privatisation Illegal

Stop the failed profit driven evil of society. Privatisation brings the world down in a sinking ship of managers who ignore good services because they are only focused on shareholders and profit. A nationalised company can still be profitable to breakeven. It’s not important to make millions its more important to provide good services for all.

@sjwrenlewis argues that the problem(s) with #nationalisation, however popular it might be in the wake of considerable service failures, is that it is subject to a political pendulum that will merely see a future #Tory govt, re-privitise to gain the electoral effects of the bribe to #voters it can entail.

While, the #economics may favour nationalisation, the political economy may instead require a response the re-invigorates & solidifies regulatory oversight?

A water crisis in the United Kingdom reopens the privatisation debate.

Debt-ridden Thames Water, the company managing the water supply of the London area, announced on Monday it had raised €880 million from its shareholders.

But the company has a debt of nearly €16 billion.

The government said in June it was ready for any scenario, amid concerns the largest water company in the UK may go under.

“England’s water industry is environmentally insolvent”: can’t make a profit without mishandling and neglecting the environment, that is, can’t protect natural water sources and can’t deliver clean water.

The company spending 40% of increased customer costs with its rich is in deep trouble.
Having run up 60 billion in debt, failed to invest in infrastructure and successive governments allowing these greedy exploitations= fucked!
what ever you do though don’t mention #nationalisation

Thames Water collapse proves only privatisation of essential services works
No other system is better at enriching politicians and shareholders

As we all know, #privatisation of public services is the only approach that works and anyone who supports #nationalisation is an idiot who doesn’t understand economics. Democracy is when politicians don’t give the public what they want because the corporations who are bribing them know better.
