@WRegulates

We're not being protected by our regulators, our health, environment and lives are at risk from self interested companies and authorities who could care less.

The battle isn't just 1 incinerator, 1 sewage discharge, 1 Asphalt plant, 1 landfill site, 1 green field building plan, AQMA, it's the system that enables, doesn't question, investigate or properly monitor our whole country! #whoregulatestheregulators

We call it 'regulatory capture' but there is a strong smell of corruption coming from parts of the Environment Agency. Why is government ignoring it?

Damning! Almost 1,500 of the most serious pollution events over the last five years were originally reported to be low impact. How does the Environment Agency square that with its policy to ignore reports of 'low impact' pollution? endsreport.com/article/174818…

It's already been hinted at by 1 EA employee low level reports often lead to the discovery of much bigger, more widespread, harmful pollution incidents. Here now is the proof. Time for change. Time to go.

It's obscene to use the word 'restoration' in this context it's nothing of the sort. It is simply enabling the behaviour of the water companies and ongoing failure of the @EnvAgency. Deal with flow and water quality, then you'll have a foundation, if not it's all greenwashing.

@Feargal_Sharkey this is being planned for the restoration of the River Stort, a neighbour of the Cam, and could be an example by @EnvAgency of how to unravel decades of abuse which has meant pollution and loss of biodiversity. We'll see... riverleacatchment.org.uk/index.php/rive…

Developers showing a total lack of care or understanding of the environments they abuse, spend a little money on "mitigation" to hide what they've done #toolittletoolate

From todays Regulatory Committee meeting for Veolias proposed Alton Incinerator: “…Chimneys - they’re quite high as we know, and there are the plumes that aren’t smoke but particulates… is the requirement to go so high to ensure the health?” “Essentially yes” #noweyincinerator

Difficult to imagine this is only Water companies, Newhaven has a number of companies "regulated" by EA when are we going to start looking at them+ their "permitted levels" of pollution #invisiblepollution
Feargal Sharkey@Feargal_Sharkey

Water company fat cat bosses cut investment in sewage network by almost 40%, fail environment targets for the 5th year running but don't worry we'll still give you a £1m 'special bonus'. Where does that leave @Ofwat and their finger wagging? telegraph.co.uk/environment/20…
