@CHinchliffMP @horton_official Southern Water has put out a statement confirming to Helena Dollimore MP that their wastewater treatment works at Eastbourne was the source.

There have been issues known to several authorities there for some years now. Systemic failures.

Today was a hearing where @SouthernWater apply for a drought order to abstract from the #rivertest to an environmentally damaging level. The images show pollution today into the @rivertest from their outfall at Nursling Industrial Estate. @EnvAgency do nothing!

@SouthernWater I reported it to you! You attended hours after the event (better than the @EnvAgency who didn’t even bother as “very busy”) and as tidal all evidence was washed away. You only tested for ammonia and dissolved O2. Where are your samples to a lab for chemicals and detergents?

[Howard Taylor @Upstreamdry]

This is the Lower river Test, SSSI, SPA, SAC yesterday with #chemcalpollution from the @SouthernWater owned outfall from Nursling Industrial Estate Right in the salmon migration @EnvAgency @AnglingTrust @FishLegal_ @SouthernWater @RiverActionUK @Feargal_Sharkey @ActivistAnglers

[Howard Taylor @Upstreamdry]

@EnvAgencySW What a disrespectful joke! We’ve reported hundreds of pollution events to you on the lower river Test over the years, the most important stretch for salmon migration …and you’ve completely failed to act. Your regulation of river pollution is worse than poor. 👎

[Fish Legal @FishLegal_]

BREAKING: Court of Appeal judgment handed down today in our nationally important river case with @pickeringfish against @DefraGovUK and @EnvAgency.

WE WON (again)! Government's appeal comprehensively dismissed.

The ruling sets out exactly what @SteveReedMP needs to do to restore rivers across the country. No more excuses. No more delay.

Tomorrow @Jesse_Norman will introduce a Ten Minute Rule Bill titled the River Wye (Cleaning) Bill. It would require the Secretary of State to publish and implement a plan for cleaning and improving the water quality of the River Wye.

Great to see our new paper @NatureWaterJnl on the greenwashing and disinformation strategies used by water companies to manufacture doubt and deflect blame for sewage pollution covered @ManchesterMill @molssimp — you can download the paper here https://t.co/V7BdhFHZvl
