Tomorrow Thames Water will be going to the High Court in London for the start of hearings to approve a restructuring plan for its debts. So we thought it might be worth a listen back to an episode we made last spring about how the company which leaks raw sewage into our rivers managed to rack up unsustainable levels of debt while also paying out dividends to shareholders.
Warning: this podcast includes exclusive interviews from those brave enough to take a dip in The Thames.
Episode first broadcast on 28 May 2024.
