       ''When England and Wales sold off their water companies in 1989, the claim was that freeing them from public ownership would unleash private capital. Markets ... would provide the investment needed to modernise the network and protect the environment, while competition (though entirely notional in a regional monopoly) would drive efficiency. The public would gain from private dynamism... three decades later, every element of that promise has failed".https://www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/10/09/water-privatisation-has-failed-now-it-is-time-to-move-on/ #UKpolitics
