Another great article by @EBNreporter highlighting the delay in SW releasing sewage in Eastbourne. Please share, this needs to be highlighted
Southern Water did not release information about several storm releases of rain water and sewage into the sea near Eastbourne for nine days.

Again @SouthernWater have waited 4 days to tell us in Ebourne they have released sewage. No alerts, no warning. Ebourne still showing as no releases on their lovely map, but when you look at the history (which they make hard to find) the truth is there. Why no warnings!?
So @SouthernWater decide to wait 14hrs to alert Eastbourne to a 3hr sewage release on a sunny day and during Airbourne! Only a few thousand people on the beach that will have been affected

Rhodes is burning...What really matters is not that a Tourist playground burns, its the animals burned, wildlife lost and Nature destroyed...but out headlines talk of cancelled flights and holidays. If we think this is inconvenient..you wait to see the inconvenience of climate refugees, lack of food and water....floods, droughts and war....but lets just carry on leave that to our kids to deal with.

Reminder that @EastSussexCC and @EastbourneBC have, year after year, placed a higher value on car parking, than the safety of local children, cycling along the seafront. 🚙🚙🚙🚙🚙🚙🚙🚴🚙🚙🚙🚙🚙

🔥I’m fired up to back @GoodLawProject’s legal challenge to force the government to take robust action on raw sewage dumping in the sea🌊💩
🎥Check out the video we made, together with cross-party MPs, to find out how you can make your voice heard too!

Where else would you see poo-shaped hats and poo-shaped 'awards' for “outstanding contribution to the amount of sewage currently in our seas”?

WANT TO HELP END THE SEWAGE SCANDAL?
Today @UKLabour will bring a vote in parliament to do just that. @JimfromOldham & I have sent a letter to Conservative MPs asking them to support that motion.
PSE contact your local MP, ask them to vote in favour of ending the sewage scandal
Sunday (30th) Eastbourne Sea Swimmers are protesting about the drop in water quality in Eastbourne & the impact this has on the environment. Pls share & join us!

"@SouthernWater has now admitted it is unable to say how much sewage it pours into the sea because it does not measure the volume"
How can you claim that a release is 95% rainwater if you don't know this data? Guesswork, that's how.

🚨Our sewage system is awash with dirty money. It’s time to tell the water company fat cats this shitshow is over. 💩❌

The genie is well and truly out of the bottle when it comes to the #SewageScandal.
And there's no doubt that water companies, and those that facilitated their profiteering pollution, are in panic mode.
Let's keep the pressure on #EndSewagePollution

SENSATIONAL NEWS.
Today @thetimes launches its campaign to clean up Britian's rivers and beaches. 👋👋👋
Gov backtracking on increasing fines for water companies. "Disproportionate", says Thérèse Coffey. “Crazy”, says the chair of the EA.
Both out of touch with reality

In the first 31 days of this year, the SSRS recorded 2,884 #sewage alerts in England and Wales. Water companies' investment clearly paying off... 👏
What an absolute shitshow. 🤬

Single-use plastic's devastating impacts reach far and wide. Its production is rooted in fossil fuels, and the part it plays in the climate crisis is huge. We're working to #EndPlasticPollution for good by 2040.
RT if you stand with us 💪

This is horrific.
According to the @SouthernWater website there are multiple CSO releases that have been going on since LAST YEAR.
One is Chichester apparently started before Christmas, 26 days ago!
Unprecedented and catastrophic pollution. How can it be justified?
