Financially, they hit the rocks below the cliff and have stayed there since. Investor wise, they are like the plague. 'Cliff edge' is ancient history.
Thames Water nearing the cliff edge.

Turd removal wise, they are still doing what I pay them to do and that’s all I’m bothered about.

...and him.
Andy, not yet an MP let alone leader, is spooking the markets, or is the government undermining him?

he says Britain “has been on the wrong path for 40 years” – a renunciation of the Thatcherite consensus that implicitly folds both New Labour and Starmerism into the same failure. He is loudly championing “public control”, specifically naming energy, housing, water and transport.
As a Blairite 'special advisor', he voted for the war in Iraq and twisted himself into knots trying to ride two horses when he was in Miliband's shadow cabinet - i wouldn't trust him one inch with a Labour party veering between crisis and disaster...which will all become moot if he fails to win a seat in the HoC.

I'm with him.
I think that utilities and buses/ trams/ trains should be public, and that there should be Government-owned housing that remains in their control.
