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."

#BBCNews - #Water companies face £168m fines over #sewage spills
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c5ypp032le0o
'Releasing raw sewage has the potential to significantly damage the environment and poses a risk to human health for those swimming in a river or sea where sewage is being discharged.'

Yorkshire Water has handed its chief executive a £1.03mn pay package despite leaving thousands of households with disrupted water supplies for a fortnight and “severe” sewage pollution failures.
Meanwhile, Ofwat has provisionally agreed a 25 per cent increase in bills for customers of Yorkshire Water, which would see households pay £537 a year by 2030, up from the current £430.
They're laughing in our faces.

So @YorkshireWater want to double down on the River Wharfe.Not only do they want to start draining the river dry by increasing the annual amount of water they abstract form the river they want to continue filling what's left with sewage.
And the @EnvAgency does what exactly? #FeargalSharkey #YorkshireWater #sewage
