If you have no grease with you, and your rings are full of ice, do not cut out the ice with a pen-knife but get your man to put the rings one by one in his mouth, and so to thaw the ice.

Now why does this news not surprise me. A cash cow for the greedy and worse without a scruple between them. As has been pointed out SAS have been monitoring this irregularity for a while. Absolutely nothing seems to ever get done regardless of evidence. We can but hope. At least it has made the news.

As a footnote SAS have a new app with some of our rivers and most of our coasts where there is a threat or sewage issue. They plan to expand the river networks as they progress. It is also a real-time app so the updates can be viewed as a good guide.

Possibly/probably/certainly this type of Machiavellian practice has become a norm since a certain political party took charge.

This isn't political on my part, just an observation - honest.

Thanks for posting the article Fredline
Without doubt there is a terrible stench of sewage surrounding the water companies and ofwat, the organisation charged with their regulation.

"Conflict of interest" ? Most definitely!

An mp suggests that Ofwat is asleep at the wheel, I suspect that they are very much awake to future job opportunities :rant:
