18/6/2019 16:07 | Wish I shared your confidence ; unexpected things happen in politics. Who would have predicted that a crazy serial liar would end up in the White House? Not sure the EU would have control over re-nationalisation. But I like the idea! | wad collector | |
12/6/2019 14:57 | Can England’s water companies clean up its dirty rivers? Critics blame insufficient capital expenditure since privatisation and a legal loophole that allows sewage to be dumped into waterways “Part of the fun is people falling into the river but we couldn’t let them do that knowing there is neat, undiluted sewage in it.” Only 14 per cent of rivers in England met the minimum “good status” standards according to an Environment Agency report in 2018 as defined by the EU Water Framework directive — down from almost 25 per cent in 2009. But as it stands, none of England’s rivers are safe enough to swim in because of the risk of people getting sick with E. coli, salmonella, campylobacter, adenovirus and ultimately — though rarely — the potentially lethal leptospirosis. "Unacceptable if true - companies concerned need to be severely fined" | crossing_the_rubicon | |
12/6/2019 08:43 | This must be gearing up as one of the shorts of the decade. Any sniff that Corbyn gets in and this will plummet. With a reputed £20bn pot to buy £70bn worth of equity all utilities’ shares face annihilation if Labour get in. | niggle | |
06/6/2019 16:09 | This is probably a safer yield than many. Happy to hold. | alphorn | |
06/6/2019 09:53 | "Even if there is one" There will be one, for sure. Some time in the next 35 months. And with a Government in chaos it just adds to the uncertainty. So do we have confidence that this will remain un-nationalised in 3 yrs time? This is what puts the brakes on the share price No-one can know what will happen ; and if you look at the unreliability of political polls recently , the uncertainty is not resolved. Will Corbyn end up PM , let us hope not , but strange things are happening in elections. Look at what the US voters did! | wad collector | |
02/6/2019 10:45 | The risk of Labour nationalising this company is overdone, in my view. The Conservatives are unlikely to agree to an election for fear of losing. Even if there is one, Corbyn is unlikely to get a majority due to the popularity of Brexit party and Lib Dems. I can't see a lot of people queuing up to do a coalition with him, and even if they do, his most radical policies will get moderated. Personally, I think the antisemitism problem will be the end of Corbyn. | bit thick | |

07/4/2019 20:39 | Hello, is there anybody in there, just nod if you can hear me, is there anyone home? Fell asleep years ago holding this lol.....zzzzzzzzzzzz | cheshire pete | |
04/4/2019 20:57 | Was in UU (NWW) at privatisation but not in at minute. Political risk from Corbyn Govt. difficult to weigh up. Is it hot air and sabre rattling to win votes? Would they go through with it if elected? If so, would UU be at the head of the queue or behind Rail, RM e al? Jumped recently when threat of JC receded, as noted above. Wonder what the big boy Instis holding think. | cheshire pete | |

18/2/2019 16:11 | News of a Labour split seems to have pushed the share price to the brink of a 1 yr high. Not that it is much of a split ; more of a small crack really. | wad collector | |
31/1/2019 13:34 | "Only three out of 17 water firms in England and Wales have passed the latest review by regulator Ofwat. All firms had to submit plans to cut bills for millions of consumers over the 2020-25 period, while reducing leaks and helping vulnerable customers. Most failed to meet the regulator's requirements. But plans from Severn Trent, United Utilities and South West Water were approved. The rest have been told to go back to the drawing board." More: | simongn | |
