@BangorUni @christiandunn @teresamayMP @joymorrissey @guardian @Feargal_Sharkey @theriverstrust @RiverActionUK @bucksfreepress @MaidenheadAds In my lifetime i remember celebrating the return of wild salmon into the Thames system and now it, and a large amount of rivers and lakes, is being pumped full of untreated sewage while the water companies pay record dividends. @Ofwat ??? Hang your heads in shame 🤬

@BangorUni @christiandunn @teresamayMP @joymorrissey @guardian @Feargal_Sharkey @theriverstrust @RiverActionUK @bucksfreepress @MaidenheadAds I drafted up a reasonable list of water-bourne, sewage-related pathogens. Very worrying when we consider the proliferation of mosquitoes, once the fish are dead. Mozzies transmit diseases, and over quite a distance from the source of pollution. The next pandemic?

@BangorUni @christiandunn @teresamayMP @joymorrissey @guardian @Feargal_Sharkey @theriverstrust @RiverActionUK @bucksfreepress @MaidenheadAds Unfortunately . we know the @Conservatives couldn't give a shit. As long as they are lining their pockets, the world is good. I'm surprised they haven't asked Fujitsu or Infosys to look into it.

@BangorUni @christiandunn @teresamayMP @joymorrissey @guardian @Feargal_Sharkey @theriverstrust @RiverActionUK @bucksfreepress @MaidenheadAds In the 90s, I used to work on the river and the watermen and lightermen spoke with pride about how much the water quality had improved over the years. Tragedy that this has been reversed….

@BangorUni @christiandunn @teresamayMP @joymorrissey @guardian @Feargal_Sharkey @theriverstrust @RiverActionUK @bucksfreepress @MaidenheadAds Just horrifying do we actually have a government here? Water should be a public utility.

@BangorUni @christiandunn @teresamayMP @joymorrissey @guardian @Feargal_Sharkey @theriverstrust @RiverActionUK @bucksfreepress @MaidenheadAds Brilliant Steve! Thank you for using your voice for our poor dying river 👊🏼💪🏼🧜‍♀️

@BangorUni @christiandunn @teresamayMP @joymorrissey @guardian @Feargal_Sharkey @theriverstrust @RiverActionUK @bucksfreepress @MaidenheadAds It’s infuriating that ,as always profit and shareholders dividends are prioritised over the very utility the company is meant to put front and central! 😡

@BangorUni @christiandunn @teresamayMP @joymorrissey @guardian @Feargal_Sharkey @theriverstrust @RiverActionUK @bucksfreepress @MaidenheadAds thank you Steve. How bad are lakes, thinking of going fishing soon.

@BangorUni @christiandunn @teresamayMP @joymorrissey @guardian @Feargal_Sharkey @theriverstrust @RiverActionUK @bucksfreepress @MaidenheadAds Thank you 🤦‍♀️
