The 2022 newsletter has arrived!

The 2022 issue of the Kensington Society newsletter has just been mailed to all members, but it can also be read and/or downloaded here. It is on 20 pages, whereof six focus on Thames Water, the private monopoly that doesn’t work as it was promised to do when the government sold all the English and Welsh public water and sewage utilities it in 1989.
