Viewing the latest from our campaign: Right to swim
Last year South West Water was the worst offender for dumping raw sewage. Jo Bateman tells us what that means for her daily swim.
Water companies are drowning in debt and pumping out sewage. It’s time for Labour to get serious on water pollution.
But when South West Water spilled sewage in Newquay, ministers did nothing.
Now the Supreme Court has removed barriers that stopped people taking on polluting water companies, Jo Bateman is expanding her case.
Sewage dumping robs me of my daily swims and harms my mental health. So I’m heading to 10 Downing Street to demand urgent action.
Jo’s swims are being disrupted by unlawful sewage spills. Jo’s simply had enough – and so have we. With our support, she’s taking legal action for everyone who wants to protect their right to swim.
Jo Bateman couldn’t go swimming after a water company sent tankers to release a flood of sewage. We’re supporting her legal action.
