    Even water companies are owned by some Middle East sovereign fund.
    Very little is still owned by British companies or British shareholders. Mostly our infrastructure is owned by large sovereign wealth funds, private venture capital companies and foreign holdings companies.

    It could also be that you're from within the UK but selfishly went on holiday
