A clear example of the theft perpetrated by the pillaging of public resources in the wake of privatisation started by Thatcher and continued by every PM since (including the fascist-in-waiting Starmer ... he just has a new name for it, thinks he can fool us). British Gas posts billion pound profits in the wake of the highest energy prices for ever using the excuse that the Ukraine war is pushing global proces up (it may well be but such profiteering is not explained only by that). Thames water have taken out massive loans whilst paying massive bonuses to executives - when that authority is taken back into public control who will be repaying those ridiculous loans ... well not the executives. Pure, unadulterated theft
