Good to hear charles watson of RiverActionUK on BBC Radio 4 Today speaking about the problems of water companies' failure to deliver clean water.
"What we've got today is a long list of measures that will cost the government nothing and is really not going to fix anything because it's the system that's broken." River Action's charles watson calling out the failures the govt's new water bill on BBC Radio 4 this morning. 📻👇
Today’s new Water Bill is a step forward but fails to fix the system. We need far stronger enforcement measures, more resources for regulators, measures to tackle pollution from farming & finally to bring water back into public hands -join the March to demand more! charles watson
