😠If ministers believe rehashed pledges and PR spin will silence the roar for real reform of our failing water sector, they’re sorely mistaken. πŸ’°There’s no commitment here to overhaul the profit driven system responsible for the sewage crisisβ€”even slashing pollution by 50%

Cleaner, Cheaper, Fairer. Read the People's Commission on Water - which DID look at ownership models, international evidence and what it will take to conserve and protect our water. https://t.co/uMQdFlKw1D

A reminder that we cannot have this in London, not only because the Thames is too polluted, but also because we have left the tidal Thames in the sole hands of an unaccountable legacy organisation founded in 1908 called the Port of London Authority (@LondonPortAuth) which

We urgently need to ban bottom trawl-fishing in the UK's marine protected areas. This industry ❌ Indiscriminately harms marine wildlife ❌ Destroys vital habitat from corals to seagrass ❌ Deepens the climate crisis ➑️81% of the British public support a ban. @OceanaUK
