Rejected petition Nationalise utility companies

More details

At the moment utility companies are making huge profits on what are essentials
Utilities like gas water and electricity should be state run for the benefit of the people
Money which is made should be put back to improve the networks and not go to shareholders .Over time this would bring about investment where its needed and a cheaper price because it is not solely profit based. Gas water and electricity are overpriced in today’s world let us pay a fair price for something that we all need.
