In a letter to the @thetimes Jonathan Jones of Westbury explains how he took out a small claims court action against a water company for loss of amenity due to sewage pollution. They agreed to settle for the sum of £550.

Now that is interesting!

"Labour unveils plan to end sewage dumping as Keir Starmer accuses Government of turning rivers into ‘sewer’".

This is not a party political broadcast but @UKLabour has a much better plan right now that that act of desperation gov have pumping out.

The numbers are out.

Over the last 3 years WCs have dumped sewage into our rivers and seas a total of 7,468,602 hours on 1,076,657 separate occasions a daily average of 983 time per day.

"Exceptional situations"?

There are none and gov knows it.

"Ending sewage dumping will mean higher water bills".

Here's the curious thing @JonahFisherBBC @Ofwat claim WCs have already had all of the funding they needed to meet their legal obligations with regard to sewage.

What happened the money?

Now there is truly shocking statistic.

167 hours elapsed between the showing of episode 1 and 2 of Paul's brilliant documentary yet during that time @SouthernWater managed to dump the equivalent of 931 hours worth of sewage along the south-east coast of England.

@MainstreamMatt I’ve not enjoyed anything as much in quite a while. Do it!

[Fern Britton 💙No tick but the real deal @Fern_Britton]

I am uncomfortable with the latest news suggesting that Nicola Bulley has an issue with alcohol and menopause. The undertone is that she maybe ‘ a bit unstable’ or perhaps even ‘not in her right mind.’ Too easy to write a woman off like this. What lies behind it?

[The Flying Seagull Project @FlyingSeagullUK]

We use circus as an egalitarian way to break down barriers and share joyful memories with children going through hardships.

And you can support this work by getting some circus goodies from our shop, where every penny of profit funds projects like the one in the photo.

Shocking testimony just now from Angela Jones before the @CommonsWelshAff committee.

4th Aug CSO dumping sewage into river, 20 - 30 children playing 100m downstream, @DwrCymru turn up with a tanker, start hosing down the CSO while the children are still playing in the river.

@KathyBurke This always makes me laugh

We are being cooked , choked and taken to the cleaners . . . if we ever become anyone’s ancestors they will ask ‘what the hell were those mugs doing ? They stood by and let them burn the world’ . . . Shell reports highest profits in 115 years https://t.co/lPtOatd875

[Tim Burgess @Tim_Burgess]

We have a government that doesn’t use public transport, they access private healthcare and their children are in private education. They claim expenses for everything from heating to furnishing and paying for a second home. They might as well live on a different planet to us

[George Monbiot @GeorgeMonbiot]

It's awful to see people responding to this thread by blaming either staff or patients for what is happening to the NHS. In other words, repeating the falsehoods spread by the government and the billionaire press. Don't you realise what they are doing? They *want* it to fail.

[Michael Rosen 💙💙🎓🎓 NICE 爷爷 @MichaelRosenYes]

Blimey.

@kathwilliamsuk Hell yeah.

"Sewage questions to MP prompt police home visits."

No doubt @dorsetpolice and or @chrisloder can confirm if this story is true and if so why they think their response was reasonably, necessary or proportionate?
