South East Water's incompetence to cost bill players £30 MILLION.

Not only did South East Water's contempt for customers result in a loss of supply for 100,000s of people, 2 hospitals, a kidney treatment centre, 15 schools, 19 care homes and 29 nurseries it's also going to cost bill payers £30 million.

Think not, well lets face it the shareholders Utilities Trust of Australia, NatWest Group @NatWestGroup and Desjardins @DesjardinsGroup aren't going to pay it are they?

Oh and remind me, why in God's name does CEO David Hinton still have a job? 👇👇👇

This discharge in Adel Beck LS16 8EA is destroying a beauty spot! Just look at all the sanitary products and wipes pouring into the beck @YorkshireWater what are you doing about it? @Feargal_Sharkey @UnderwaterMedia @HenleyMermaids @leanahosea @CleanIlkley @TheJimMurray

England's water privatisation is an extreme, ideological experiment that has failed since 1989

70% of Tory voters agree

And CONSERVATIVE MP @jackmrankin is saying no to Thames Water's state sanctioned rip off 👇

"Profit cannot be privatised while risk is socialised" 👏👏👏

Does any other species on earth have so little interest in its own survival?

[RevIvel @ivel_rev]

Exactly so. It won’t however do anything to get rid of the decades of toxic silt that has built up in the river and all the many mill ponds downstream.

[RevIvel @ivel_rev]

Good news from the Ivel. ⁦@NationalHways⁩ seems to be doing work at a settlement lagoon they have ignored for 30 years. Let’s hope it is not just digging a bloody big hole and hoping for the best!⁦@stormwater_jo⁩ ⁦@CHinchliffMP⁩ ⁦@Feargal_Sharkey⁩

🚨 BREAKING: 7 supertrawlers are hoovering up our seas off Sussex RIGHT NOW 🚢

These floating fish factories can be longer than 140m with nets 3x the length of the Eiffel Tower. This is industrial overfishing happening on our doorstep 😡

Right Olly @agricontract and I don’t agree on everything but please listen to this because he is absolutely bang on with this . Supermarket greed is killing UK farming . Please support your local food producers - not the pockets of bloody faceless shareholders

[Chair Wild Trout Trust @Chairman_WTT]

@RussellB1ggs Fingers crossed 🤞 with EA Seatrout catch records showing a stark decline we all need to do something to help! But, when we all work together great things can happen: https://t.co/oUBsZHFyLp

The River Babingley is the first freshwater Sea Trout encounter on entering the Great Ouse🧐unfortunately I’m not seeing as many Redds as usual & believe it’s down to the low river level☹️but happy to say I’ve found some ❤️#ChalkStreams

[Russell ChalkStreamsInCrisis 🦇🦎🦇🦎 @RussellB1ggs]

@Chairman_WTT I’ve always assumed it’s Sea Trout spawning in the River Babingley but this definitely has the colour of a large Atlantic Salmon & you know there big when they cause a bow wave when swimming off 🙂That’s also a huge newly excavated Redd could it be a Salmon ? @N_Rivers_Trust https://t.co/QOU58p9YBF

[RevIvel @ivel_rev]

Lots to look forward to for @ivel_rev in 2026. Flow monitoring station installed to hold @AffinityWater and @EnvAgencyAnglia accountable for the dire state of the river. Mink 🤞gone so we can look to get water voles back @HMWTBadger. @VerValleySoc @CHinchliffMP @Feargal_Sharkey

@RussellB1ggs @CanterburyCtyd But then you will be obliged to take them all to the vet for stomach pumping.

[Chris Hinchliff MP @CHinchliffMP]

Who owns Britain? Mostly aristocrats, oligarchs and big corporations.

Inheritance tax changes won’t touch their corporations and trusts that never die.

Labour should go after these wealthy landowners—not family farmers so vital to food security and climate action.

[RevIvel @ivel_rev]

Hey @AffinityWater what has happened to the river Ivel at Baldock? 1) augmentation pump been switched off or 2) pump failure? Your £££ restoration scheme looks better with 💦 #stakeholdercontact #chalkstream @EnvAgencyAnglia @CHinchliffMP @VerValleySoc @AquiferChalk @CaBAtweets

I’m speaking at this event today. Let’s hope that the Committee will recommend effective regulation of pollution from highway runoff.

@Parrog3 @EnvAgencyAnglia @CHinchliffMP @Feargal_Sharkey The West Norfolk Chalk Aquifer is heavily over abstracted with at least 15 @AnglianWater boreholes that I know of + countless boreholes feeding the irrigation equipment flooding fields for Potatoes 🥔 The @EnvAgencyAnglia even allows direct abstraction from the @GaywoodRiver 🤬
