Yesterday I noticed water seeping from our stopcock cover at the end of the drive. Thought I should let Scottish Water know, today there is a large hole at the end of the drive and the whole street has no water because it turns out the main was leaking and the one hour job the guys estimated looks like an all day one with 2 or 3 extra vans.
#UK govt worst case scenario for nationalising water still leaves households better off
Research found an average of 35% of customer bills used to pay for interest on companies’ loans, & to pay dividends to shareholders
You're paying a #PrivatisationTax for #water companies dividends & debt
Publicly owned #ScottishWater doesn’t pay dividends to private shareholders, lost just 8% of revenue in interest payments

Our rivers and lochs are ticking along nicely thanks to #ScottishWater . Then again, it's not a private company.
They came for our land then they came for our oil and gas. Now they come for our green energy. Climate change will motivate them to come for our water. This will become a precious resource. . #ScottishWater #snp

@bbcnewsfeed interested where the Scotland figure comes from. Water/waste is included in council tax bills in Scotland which are not yet set for 24/25. Water is thankfully publicly owned in Scotland as it should be. #water #publicownership #Scotland #Scottishlocalgovernment #ScottishWater
Thinking of the #UnisonScotland members and #ScottishWater staff on strike today. Wishing them the best of luck in their fight for fair pay.
@Free_Press the #privatisationandderegulation chickens are well and truly coming home to roost now. Well done #scotland where #ScottishWater remains in public ownership. #scottishindependence never more needed, before #westminster tries to neuter the #ScottishParliament
I never gave my thoughts about the meeting with Scottish Water the other week.
That’s fine. I’ll add them to my thoughts after tonight’s ACM.

You can watch it live on YouTube this evening as well, starts in little over an hour.
Having our first “community organization” meeting with Scottish Water this afternoon to see how their projects on upgrading the Water of Leith CSOs goes.
Only taken 4 months, and we have many questions, and are looking forward to hearing about timelines and plans so that we citizens can hold our water company accountable.
ha ha, yes the advantages of the #ScottishWater business model have become quite a theme here in the last few days
Alas, the other thing the rains have brought is overflowing drains. Not pleasant. The number of non-flushable wet wipes chucked down the toilet by morons really doesn't help; there's a lot of them on the path.

I went to the seaside yesterday, but since I have an open cut on my foot I didn't risk going for a paddle. The #ScottishWater might be less #sewage than down south of the border in the uncivilised lands, but I'm still taking no chances.

@peterbrown @alextually @fionaorkneynews the warning signs have been there for quite a few years now. It’s just that people - and yes, I do mean ordinary people - haven’t taken and don’t take it seriously. As someone raised in a country where water scarcity was always an issue most of the small daily routine behaviours that are a result of that upbringing have never left me #ScottishWater #Water #Scotland #WaterScarcity
