Who Regulates the regulators

We're not being protected by our regulators, our health, environment and lives are at risk from self interested companies and authorities who could care less.

[Who Regulates the regulators @WRegulates]

The battle isn't just 1 incinerator, 1 sewage discharge, 1 Asphalt plant, 1 landfill site, 1 green field building plan, AQMA, it's the system that enables, doesn't question, investigate or properly monitor our whole country! #whoregulatestheregulators

🚨EXCLUSIVE: 🚨The Environment Agency has been accused of ‘massaging the figures’ by telling staff to pause inspections at poorly performing waste sites until January

Not just water, our air is not being protected by @EnvAgency @DefraGovUK @Feargal_Sharkey @RachSalv @HugoSAS

[Newhaven Air, land and sea! @local_air]

@FMConwayltd operating within legal emission limits next to a AQMA being found in breach why are they + @VeoliaUK not independently monitored @EnvAgency doing their job? @RachSalv @SussexBylines @JamesMacCleary @brightonargus

We call it 'regulatory capture' but there is a strong smell of corruption coming from parts of the Environment Agency. Why is government ignoring it?

[Who Regulates the regulators @WRegulates]

@local_air @EnvAgency @FMConwayltd @brightonargus @newshaven @jamesm Obviously a change to the whole national planning framework needs to be overhauled, the long-term health of so many people living near industrial processing is clearly at risk.

[Newhaven Air, land and sea! @local_air]

Please remember @EnvAgency regulates our water but also the "air quality" in towns like Newhaven, companies like @FMConwayltd @brightonargus @newshaven @jamesm

NEWS: Local councillors in #Newhaven are calling on FM Conway to take urgent action at their asphalt plant to address the stench being belched out across the town. #MoreRadioNews #Sussex

"Five water firms risk big fines for ‘illegal’ sewage spills".

Where is the @EnvAgency in all of this?

@RachSalv @JamesBevanEA @EmmaHowardBoyd Perhaps you should remind @EmmaHowardBoyd and the other EA board members of the Code of Conduct for Board Members of Public Bodies particularly the section dealing with openness and accountability.

Excellent media coverage in this week’s edition of the @TheWeekInEditor. There is an excellent letter from @votedannorris, West of England Metro Mayor ‘Beware of greenwash’👇

[Rachel Salvidge @RachSalv]

Damning! Almost 1,500 of the most serious pollution events over the last five years were originally reported to be low impact. How does the Environment Agency square that with its policy to ignore reports of 'low impact' pollution?

[Feargal Sharkey @Feargal_Sharkey]

It's already been hinted at by 1 EA employee low level reports often lead to the discovery of much bigger, more widespread, harmful pollution incidents. Here now is the proof.

Time for change. Time to go.

[Newhaven Air, land and sea! @local_air]

@Feargal_Sharkey @EnvAgency Mitigation is one of the worst expressions in development planning!

[Feargal Sharkey @Feargal_Sharkey]

It's obscene to use the word 'restoration' in this context it's nothing of the sort.

It is simply enabling the behaviour of the water companies and ongoing failure of the @EnvAgency.

Deal with flow and water quality, then you'll have a foundation, if not it's all greenwashing.

[Newhaven Air, land and sea! @local_air]

Developers showing a total lack of care or understanding of the environments they abuse, spend a little money on "mitigation" to hide what they've done #toolittletoolate

Excellent news for the county of Hampshire - congratulations to all those who truly recognise that Incinerators are not the future for Great Britain!

[noweyincinerator @weyincinerator]

From todays Regulatory Committee meeting for Veolias proposed Alton Incinerator: “…Chimneys - they’re quite high as we know, and there are the plumes that aren’t smoke but particulates… is the requirement to go so high to ensure the health?”
“Essentially yes” #noweyincinerator

[Say No To Consett Incinerator @NofromConsett]

https://t.co/3TrPsivFgq #ProjectGenesis From progress to regression in one decision - to put an incinerator next to homes and a town is deplorable.

[Who Regulates the regulators @WRegulates]

A total overhaul of our planning/ industrial regulation processes is needed not just Water Companies @freshairnow79 @plumeplotter @NofromConsett @StopTheRebuild @RachSalv

[Newhaven Air, land and sea! @local_air]

Difficult to imagine this is only Water companies, Newhaven has a number of companies "regulated" by EA when are we going to start looking at them+ their "permitted levels" of pollution #invisiblepollution
