"Feargal Sharkey blasts Labour's plans to clean Britain's rivers as inadequate."
What we need is decisive, bold, transitional action from govt this is not it.

"Thames Water refloats plan for UK’s first new reservoir in three decades."
London and SE needs to find extra 5 billion litres of water per day by 2050.
@thameswater approach? Put forward the same idea they've failed to deliver 3 times already. Ho hum.

Good job there's no tide to bring it back...
I swear you really can't make this stuff up.
What's @SouthernWater's idea to fix their sewage dumping at Whitstable? Easy build a longer pipe and dump that sh*t further out to sea. I kid you now.
Has @EnvAgency issued a permit for the nonsense?

Rishi Sunak lied to you.
He lied and lied and lied.
Thank goodness for @EnvAgency and their firm hand on the tiller...oh.
"Sewage flowed into London’s waterways for a whopping 12,000 hours last year."
The equivalent of a single sewage overflow pipe dumping non-stop, 24 hours a day, for 504 days straight. Hell of an achievement @thameswater

"Northumbrian Water pumps 1m tonnes of raw sewage into the North Sea."
So I've been away for a few days and come back to discover WCs have done bugger all to change their attitude.
Happy if not joyous to treat customers and the enviro with contempt.

"The Thames has become a ‘national disgrace’ – so we tested the water to see how bad it really is."

If the board of @Ofwat had any honour they'd all resign, today!

And here they are 👇 the men and woman responsible for dumping 14,027,654 hours worth of sewage into the environment over the last 5 years and helping pollute every single river in the country.
Ladies and gentlemen I give you the board of @Ofwat.

The water companies cheated us taxpayers. They took our money, but didn't do the work.
I ask @Feargal_Sharkey is it time to call for a national boycott on paying all water bills?
(He's more reasonable than I am!)

"Who will win in standoff between Thames Water’s investors and watchdog?"
I wonder if Chris Weston, @thameswater CEO since Jan has already started trying to rewrite his CV?

Oh god. I’ve spent the last few days watching French far-right speeches for my latest book and I feel I want to scrub my skin out from the inside. So much hate and dangerous vitriol. Think I’ll curl up with some Father Ted to soothe my soul. – at South East, England
Interesting this is happening mostly at Breakfast periods (not heavy rainfall). This would indicate the quality of 'treated' sewage needs investigating, not just untreated. @RachSalv @horton_official
You sitting down?
4,014,964 hours worth of sewage dumped into England’s rivers in 2023. An all time record. A massive 129% increase on 2022.
