What-er shambles

 An interim Water Commission report released on 3 June tells us that “the current system is not delivering what people expect and need” but “There is no simple, single change, no matter how radical, that will deliver the fundamental ‘reset’ of the water sector”

Alongside the blather about a ‘long-term direction’ and better regulation is a plea for the already low risk to investors to be made lower still, to make low returns more attractive to capital.

And there’s the rub – the Commission is (of course!) stuck with the capitalist mindset.

There is indeed a single radical change to make it easier to produce all of the goods and services that we all need – expropriate the capitalists.
