Whilst it was obvious that Labour’s pointless water company bonus ban would be evaded, the more important point is that it is an utter distraction. Bonuses are a tiny rounding error of the cost of fixing illegal outfalls & banning them does nothing to get spades in the ground to fix the problem.
What we actually need is 3 things:
1. On the ground investigations on every river in England to find the illegal outfalls, quantify their harm & devise solutions.
2. A detailed staged plan in practical terms of how every single illegal outfall will be fixed within 10 years.
3. The Environment Agency being directed (and funded) to prosecute every single illegal outfall to the full extent of the law til they are fixed.
The rest is frankly irrelevant noise.
@TheCrane_EP Also think she’s starting to fear that by not marrying, she’s relegating herself to being the spinster aunt who takes of the children and can’t go into society unless it’s with one of her married sibs/friends I.e she won’t have have as much freedom as she thought
