Campaigners say costly new funds will lead to higher bills, which company denies

How much longer can this fiasco on? Water is an essential public utility, it morally indefensible for it to be treated as a cash cow to benefit a few.

Thames Water creditors to decide on new £2.4bn loan.
If agreed, it could add £40 to each household bill.
Previously TW secured £3.4bn at 9.75% interest rate.
One-third of customer bill covers debt costs.
Lenders eye ballout, higher bills to make money.

LET THEM GO BUST !
Last year, Thames Water took out a £3bn loan - at 9.75% interest.
And now they want another £2.4bn to keep going?!
ENOUGH.
If water companies can't survive without rip-off loans, they should be declared insolvent and brought into public hands through special administration.
