UK: South East Water boss quits after supply failures.

South East Water said David Hinton had decided to step down but would remain in post “to allow an orderly transition over the summer period”.

Cat Hobbs from the British Blue Community ‘We Own It’ comments:
«What is a distraction is the idea that a privatised water boss resigning will make ANY difference. South East Water serves its shareholders in Australia and Canada. The government should take it into special administration and PERMANENT PUBLIC OWNERSHIP.»
