The Welsh know all about England's greed to control water. #CofiwchDryweryn
weownit.org.uk We Own It @weownit.org.uk · Jul 6
We were quoted in the Sunday Express in response to John Redwood, the architect of privatisation, begging people to 'read the history books' about nationalised water.

There's a more recent history tho'. 40 years of greed and under-investment, fouling our seas and endangering public health. 1/2
Cat Hobbs, dir­ector of pro-nation­al­isa­tion organ­isa­tion We Own It, said: “Water is a nat­ural mono­poly, we have no choice and the pub­lic is abso­lutely sick of being ripped off while sewage flows in our rivers and seas. “‘Pub­lic con­trol’ isn’t enough, it’s mean­ing­less, it’s busi­ness as usual – it’s another word for reg­u­la­tion which has been fail­ing house­holds since water was privat­ised in 1989. “We are call­ing on Andy Burnham to be crys­tal clear that he will end the scam and deliver per­man­ent pub­lic own­er­ship for all the Eng­lish water com­pan­ies. “Own­er­ship is the only way to get real con­trol – wouldn’t you rather own than rent? It’s the same for the nation.” Ms Hobbs added: “Burnham can do this afford­ably by for­cing all com­pan­ies to deliver massive invest­ment out of their own pock­ets or go bust. A whop­ping third of every water bill is pay­ing for share­holder dividends and the debt they’ve racked up at our expense.”

"British born". Brown people are born here too.

I'm white. First generation Irish. I vote Plaid Cymru. Matt Goodwin and Nigel Farage can go fuck themselves.

"Diptych: 'Croeso i Gymru'" - 2025, internet poster @4u5t0, digital media.
A long shot of a public information poster, to the rear of a station sign for Aberystwyth, Wales. The sign is described in the alt for the next image. Note: there is evidence that it is raining, hard. Information poster from Dŵr Cymru/Welsh Water. "Mae dŵr yn werthfawr. Peidiwch â'i wastraffu." Or: Water's precious. Let's not waste it." The camera has captured a hard rain a fallin'.

England is growing fat sucking on Scotland's energy teat, whist Scotland suffers the highest rates of fuel poverty in Europe. Seriously, are you not Yes yet? #IndependenceIsNormal
UK Labour government plan huge hydro schemes across Britain, with a giant scheme to be planned for Loch Ness.

"Water UK said datacentres were already being built in water-stressed areas, with more than three-quarters located in the south and east of England. Millions of people in these regions have been placed under a hosepipe ban by water companies after prolonged extreme heat and lack of rainfall."
Not enough water for UK’s datacentre plans, trade body says
Industry says government’s failure to address cooling demands means AI growth plans are ‘fatally flawed’

Water has always been political in Wales. Westminster still holds powers over our water - which has direct consequences on our communities, from the bills we pay to the decisions about our waterways.

It’s time for Wales to have full control over such valuable resources.

60 mlynedd yn ôl i heddiw - boddwyd Cwm Celyn i gyflenwi dwr i ddinas Lerpwl.

60 years ago today - Llyn Celyn was flooded to supply water to the city of Liverpool. We must never let this happen again in Wales.

I recommend this documentary: www.itv.com/watch/vanish... Extraordinary footage and oral testimony about this shameful event, presented intelligently and sensitively. #CofiwchDryweryn

#TeletextArt inspired by last night's 'Vanished Wales' documentary on ITV Wales:
www.itv.com/watch/vanish...

Context: the village and community of Capel Celyn in North Wales was infamously wiped out when the Tryweryn valley was flooded to build a reservoir to provide water for Liverpool in 1965.
Pixel/teletext artwork of an amorphous red blob with the words 'Cofiwch Dryweryn' in white (Welsh for 'Remember Tryweryn') against a white background, a nod to the well-known 'Cofiwch Dryweryn' painted mural in Llanrhystud near Aberystwyth.
