The Environment secretary George Eustice ‘recommended’ the government’s MPs vote to allow scenes like this at his and your local beach.
265 MPs voted down an amendment to stop private water companies from dumping raw sewage into the UK’s rivers and coastlines.
Evolve put together a list of them all so you can out how if your MP voted to allow water companies to dump shit on you, or in rivers damaging health of humans, tourism and the environment.
Among them were most Cornish and coastal Devon MPs. Scarborough, Norfolk and most the south coast we assume voting against the will of their water using constituents and with the government whip.
“Lords Amendment 45 to the Environment Bill would have placed a legal duty on water companies in England and Wales “to make improvements to their sewerage systems and demonstrate progressive reductions in the harm caused by discharges of untreated sewage.” report Evolve.
“Despite the horrendous environmental impact of the disgusting practice, shortly before the vote, the Conservative Environment Secretary George Eustice recommended to his fellow MPs that they should reject it.”
“And, owing largely to the government’s 80 seat majority, the amendment was indeed defeated – by a margin of 268 MPs to 204.”
For your convenience, Evolve has collated a list of every single MP who voted to allow water companies to continue the horrendous practice of dumping raw sewage into our waterways below. Make sure you contact them or post on your social media to remind them of their duties. It is 2021 not 1988. Water companies which are highly profitable regional monopolies, some even avoiding UK tax, can not be allowed to get away with this for £.
