Global Rates Steady as DRC Reels, US Troop Costs Soar, Water Bills Spike
Multiple news sources report that water bills in the UK are set to rise again in April, with England and Wales seeing an average increase of £2.70 a month (£33 annually), while Scotland already announced an £42 annual increase; these increases are attributed to funding vital infrastructure upgrades and addressing public concerns about sewage spills, though the specific amount varies significantly by supplier and region. Despite public outcry and previous hefty increases, regulators have permitted these rises to address decades of underinvestment, with further increases planned in the coming years.
