Reeves: Increases to household water bills a ‘bitter pill’
Chancellor Rachel Reeves has described a planned average 21% increase to water bills as a “bitter pill” for consumers amid the sewage pollution scandal and cost-of-living crisis.
Household water bills in England and Wales are to rise by an average £19 a year over the next five years.
Rachel Reeves promised the Government will “get a grip” on the water sector.
