Actually, they don't.

The direction of motion is caused by the Coriolis effect. This effect is the basis of the Foucault pendulum demonstration and also causes the counterclockwise rotation of cyclones in the northern hemisphere. However, this effect in a basin or toilet is so weak that most of the time the direction of spin of draining water is the sum of other effects.
