Whether it’s new legislation & better regulation from an underfunded @EnvAgency or re-nationalisation, the solutions are in the hands of government. See how your MP voted at thesmearcampaign.org and demand action to #endsewagepollution now. #sewagescandal

The full @itvnews report on our campaign @YouGov poll the results of which surprised even us. Tragic that something we should all be able to enjoy this summer has become a very real public health concern, because of the failure of govt & corporate greed. #sewagescandal #sewage

There we have it. Just 14% of people day they are 'likely' to swim in the sea this summer because of sewage. @DefraGovUK of course in an attempt to exonerate themselves from having any responsibility whatsoever blame the water companies. Cheap move, but they never were classy.

And here they are 👇 the men and woman responsible for dumping 14,027,654 hours worth of sewage into the environment over the last 5 years and helping pollute every single river in the country. Ladies and gentlemen I give you the board of @Ofwat. "In the name of God, go".

We’re all looking forward to watching the two teams battle it out later… Who will win? This is unclear… but one thing we all know is that while our MPs let them get away with it, we all lose. #thesmearcampaign #sewagepollution #theboatrace2024 #theboatrace #SewageScandal

"Back in 2017, the UK Government hadn’t run a single public awareness campaign on an issue that was then and is still killing more people than war, smoking, obesity and alcohol. So we decided to." This was @COPInterest's first campaign 👇. #AirPollution youtu.be/KVTxV_9ZZUg
