The article was about rivers in the US and central Europe though, so it is not clear to me how UK water company privatization policies are relevant.

Because the privatisation of UK water companies directly led to huge amount of shit being dumped in UK rivers.
buy water company -> dump shit in rivers rather than treat it -> profit

JetSetWilly wrote that they privatized England water and it's measurably shit. They didn't privatize Scotland water and they have not enough measurements to say it's shit or not. It doesn't prove either way so the point is moot.
