Actor Steve Coogan has joined protestors in a very high profile fight to stop sewage being dumped into Lake Windermere in the Lake District by the local water company, United Utilities. He tells @susannareid100 & @edballs that he is calling on the company to clear up the lake.

Good old @SouthWestWater always dependable, always reliable, always crap. Highest water bills in England, customers living under a hosepipe ban since last August and this morning dumping sewage into huge swaths of if not most of Cornwall and Devon. Ho hum.

"Severn Trent boss pockets another £3.2m despite fury over leaks and sewage spills." There we have it. "We're sorry"! @stwater gives £260m to shareholders and promptly pays fat cat boss £3.2m. Why on earth does anyone believed these people any more? https://t.co/bVheSWsCsC

Darren Henry, Conservative MP is the most expensive MP, his expenses were £280,936. Equivalent to a salary of more than £600,000. Only £177,750 can be spent on staff, so at least £103,186 was spent on himself. And no one even knows who he is.
