Here is a 🧵catalogue of some of the opposition to Government's #NutrientNeutrality proposals, ahead of key votes in Parliament *tomorrow*. Reminder: the proposals would: ❌polluter rivers ❌weaken environmental law ❌break the #PolluterPaysPrinciple
The #NutrientNeutrality amendment has been published. With these harmless-looking words, Government wants to disapply the #HabitatsRegulations to allow pollution without mitigation in England's most sensitive nature sites. Parliamentarians concerned about rivers, plz vote "no".

This is Turtle 🐢. Their actual job is beach. Marine turtles are excellent navigators – they often migrate hundreds, even thousands of kilometres between feeding and nesting grounds. To help protect our marine species, adopt a turtle today.

BRAVO to @UKLabour: tomorrow they will vote against the Govt’s outrageous plans to pollute our rivers, thru the scrapping of ‘nutrient neutrality’ rules. Yes we can & must build more affordable homes - we can do this without putting more sewage in rivers!
