Environment Secretary Steve Reed is staunchly ignoring the calls of 82% of the public to take water into public ownership. He even banned his “independent commission” from looking into nationalisation. You can’t know exactly why he wants to ignore the evidence. But you do know that the water industry lobby is powerful. The sister company to Northumbrian Water even took the Minister to see his team Crystal Palace play with £1800 in hospitality.
Lois is Reed’s local constituent. She’s sick to the back teeth of the rip-off of water privatisation.
Hundreds of people have fundraised so Lois can take Steve Reed to see Crystal Palace’s last home game of the season on 20th May. If he comes, she’ll put the arguments for public ownership on behalf of the 82 percent.
You can see Lois' daily videos inviting Steve Reed to the football on our YouTube channel.
