    Something being technically legal doesn’t make it technically OK.

    If I had just started a new job and my CV was found to be “incredibly misleading”, I’d expect to be kicked out the door, not because I’d broken the law or commited gross misconduct, but because I’d been found to be unsuitable for the expectations of the company/customers.

    This story is just another straw on the camels back of the privatised water industry that have been using the British tax payer as an ATM for fat cat shareholders for decades, with debts so huge that our children and our children’s children will be burdened.

      I didn’t say it was ok, only that it was probably technically fine

        That’s semantics. I take it you understood the message I was trying to convey.
