Because it's easy to buy off the party in power and the media does their dirty work.

Brexers wanted their Tory deregulation - Thames Water is the result.
I bet ReeSmogg hasn't stopped grinning.
And that has what to do with your pension choice ?
If private investors can benefit from buying shares in these utility companies, why can't the government do the same.
The only thing investors contribute is money and then wait for a dividend.
If the government owned most of the shares in these companies, then the profits would go the government instead of private investors usually in foreign countries.
It seems to work for the Chinese.

And do what happens when other companies go under.
Offer the creditors a tiny percentage of what they are owed.
Then the country will be taking back assets not always selling them off...

Perhaps they also pay bills for water, sewage, railways, gas, electricity and the postal service.
Do you enjoy being fleeced?
It seems the world and his mate own British water, everyone that is, except the Brits themselves.
Is the state so incompetent that they can't run a water company and make a profit which could then be reinvested in the system.
Wales, Scotland and N.I. Water systems are all state owned.

Good point from the above article.
How on earth is it justifiable that the governments of eight other nations can hold direct stakes in England's water supply, while the UK government itself insists that it's unfit and improper for the nation to own and run its own water supply

Who actually owns the UK's water supply?
A significant majority of British people believe that the water supply is so vital that it should be run as a not-for-profit public service ...

So you don't have any principals of where your money is invested providing it put pounds in your pocket
