All views my own, I swim all year & am passionate about Cumbria and protecting it from eco-vandalism.

[Nicky @NickyCockburn]

@adamvaughan_uk It’s about time. I am a swimmer and won’t swim in the nearest lake due to almost constant dumping of sewage into the environmentally protected river Derwent and lakes. Poor Cumbria. Recent screenshot from https://t.co/Ge4eNsDU6C

@adamvaughan_uk This Government appears more right wing than the Conservatives.

@Feargal_Sharkey Nationalise, we have the Government (us) paying £millions for new reservoirs when the #environmentagency is making #Untitedutilities decommission reservoirs in W.Cumbria.

Bring back dog licences and make pet insurance mandatory for dog owners. That way vicious dogs and their owners might actually pay for the damage they cause. https://t.co/OnvYy016mN

@SophyRidgeSky So the Windfarms are going to line the pockets of the hedge funds with their constraint payments (the grid can’t cope when it’s windy so the owners get paid not to produce electricity) , more houses great but the existing infrastructure can’t cope.

The deadline to register to vote in the upcoming General Election is 11.59pm TODAY (Tuesday 18 June).

Registering is quick and easy.

Go to https://t.co/QIfdY8SqT7. You'll be asked for your national insurance number (but you can still register if you do not have one).

[Nicky @NickyCockburn]

Sewage dumping in protected rivers really is treated with impunity. I hope that our new MP will do more than just vote for it to continue.

[charles watson @watsonchas]

Can anybody think of another industry where systemic law breaking is a daily event - whilst its regulators allow this to continue with impunity - & shareholders happily pocket the proceeds?

Solar and wind are half hearted and not fit for purpose, they are expensive and not a true solution. We are pissing away time, money and effort on something that is knee jerk at best, because climate clowns scream loudest.

The shambles that is the water industry, its political oversight and regulation in a single Tweet.

Poison a whole town, refuse to comply with the law and as a reward get you a 50% pay increase.

HURRAH!!!

[Nicky @NickyCockburn]

The Govt poisons W.Cumbria 😥

@CHEMTrust @EurobarometerEU In 10% of England we deliberately add harmful chemicals to our water. Toxic industrial H2SiF6 mandated to increase to 100% by government despite the known adverse health effects and IQ damage to infants as well as the huge environmental damage. @CHEMTrust must lobby to stop this!

[Feargal Sharkey @Feargal_Sharkey]

Some of those pictures look like the Putney rowing club on the Thames.

The same stretch of the Thames that had 14,000,000,000 litres of sh*t dumped into it last year by @thameswater. 🤬

[Jamie Owen @JamieOwenNews]

All cockle beds below millin creek near Picton point in Pembrokeshire are dead. Millin is and has been under investigation by NRW for years and nothing has been done. Millin brook is probably the worst polluted brook that flows into the River Cleddau

[Feargal Sharkey @Feargal_Sharkey]

"Water company shareholders pay 'less than nothing' of own money into struggling firms."

Yes you read that right. There has not been single year when water company shareholders have taken out more money than they ever put it.

Simply put, we've been had.

@Terence28387564 @AGAINSTFLUORIDE @GeorgeMonbiot I suspect Tories owns the filter and bottled water companies, why else would they poison the constituents and environment?

[Nicky @NickyCockburn]

And we still let them poison our water in west cumbria 🙄

'Fluoride Free NZ and NZ doctors take legal action against Hastings District Council’s decision to resume fluoridating Hastings community water supplies to be unlawful, unscientific, undemocratic and a reckless wielding of power against a citizenship https://t.co/U4eiD9sRm8
