5:08Now PlayingThames Water has said it will have to increase bills by 59% by 2030 in a new business plan for the coming years.
In its response to Ofwat's draft determination on water companies' plans, Thames proposed raising average yearly water bills to £666.50 per customer by 2030, a 52% rise.
That could rise to £696, a 59% increase, if it is given extra spending allowances by the regulator.
Environmental campaigner Feargal Sharkey calls out water bosses for 'trying to extort, if not blackmail' their customers, urging people to 'flood the streets with their fury' on October 26th, in the March For Clean Water.
