Whilst CEO of @thameswater Chris Weston is on on your board of directors no one should be buying fishing from you. You should be ashamed.
🎣 Just in! We’ve secured a handful of extra rods for next season on Iceland’s renowned Midfjardara River 🇮🇸 — one of the country’s most productive Salmon fisheries. After another exceptional season, it remains a must-visit for serious Salmon anglers. 🐟✨

1/2 Millionaire Chris Weston is CEO of @thameswater — a co responsible for thousands of illegal sewage discharges into UK rivers. He’s also a director of @Sportquest_Hols — selling elite fishing trips to unspoiled waters around the world.. This is a conflict we cannot ignore..

Well, better late than never. But unlikely to report before the Govt allows @thameswater a £3bn top up. @Feargal_Sharkey @ChrisGPackham @WindrushWasp @HughFW @We_OwnIt @RiverActionUK @ActivistAnglers @TheJimMurray @HugoSAS
We are opening an enforcement case against Thames Water We are investigating whether the delays to delivering its environmental improvement schemes have meant that it has breached its obligations Read our statement: https://t.co/SAL1d3t0TD

Best in the biz. 🥇
Next year i am available for collaborations, how we view rivers needs to change. Rivers are unsung heroes of biodiversity. Rivers play a vital role in connecting habitats, their value to plants and animals extends far beyond the surface area they cover. #freshwaterfish #rivers

“Then there are the salmon farms in the seas on the coast. All the detritus..crap that comes from filling a circular net with thousands of genetically modified fish also being treated with chemicals to get them to grow & keep them alive is wanton ecocide" https://t.co/w4UbzsjOKq

15,000 people marched through London for clean water yesterday. Barely a mention in mainstream media. We marched to tell the government to do its job. We marched for our rivers, lakes and seas. We marched to stop profit from pollution. We marched for our children’s future.

The current regulatory system clearly doesn’t work. Our rivers are screaming for change. The government need to completely restructure the way they spend our money on our environment. @SteveReedMP @Keir_Starmer Let’s let them know this Sunday on the March for clean water.✊
