Who are the key figures in the #Sewage crisis, and where are they now?
With anger stoked by #Channel4’ s drama #DirtyBusiness, we look at what has happened to some of the main players
Sandra Laville
Fri 13 Mar 2026"Water companies have been in the public eye for the wrong reasons again recently. #SouthWestWater was in the dock pleading guilty to supplying water unfit for human consumption, while the regulator fined South East Water £22.5m for repeated supply failures that affected more than 280,000 people over three years.
"As the full scale of the sewage pollution scandal has been revealed to the public over the past six years, key figures working for the regulators and the #privatised companies have been heavily criticised. Channel 4’s drama Dirty Business has focused attention on individuals at the heart of the scandal.
"The Guardian examined what some of the main characters are doing today."
[...]
"Sarah Bentley
Bentley was the chief executive of #ThamesWater from September 2020 to June 2023. She joined from Severn Trent and promised an eight-year turnaround for the company, but left with immediate effect after three years following a public outcry over the discharge of #RawSewage into #rivers and missing targets on pollution and sewer flooding."

Serious water pollution incidents up 60% in #England, Environment Agency says
Esme Stallard, July 18, 2025
Excerpt: "Every year the Environment Agency records the number of times pollution such as untreated sewage is released from water company sites such as treatment works into the country's waterways.
Just three companies were responsible for the vast majority of the most serious incidents - #ThamesWater (33), #SouthernWater (15) and #YorkshireWater (13).
" 'These figures expose a brutal truth. Serious #pollution incidents are rising, #sewage discharges remain rampant, and our rivers are spiralling toward #EcologicalCollapse. This is not just regulatory failure; it is a national disgrace,' said #RiverAction CEO James Wallace."

'It’s clear the business model for #ThamesWater has failed & the company is unviable. Even it's own shareholders refuse to keep it afloat.
staff are facing an uncertain future, jobs at risk & no hope of much-needed investment. Customers will have to contend with poor water quality and rising bills.
This utter chaos is further evidence the government needs to renationalise Thames Water now.'
