Water Bills and Governance Crisis
This chapter examines the looming increase in water bills in the UK, projected to exceed £100 by 2025 due to systemic failures in the privatized water sector. The discussion delves into Thames Water's financial struggles and the political accountability surrounding the responses of the Labour party and Conservatives to historical investment failures. By intertwining financial burden narratives with governance complexities, the chapter calls for a compelling storytelling approach to engage the public in understanding this critical issue.
