This weekend as part of the Great UK Waterblitz with co-members of the local Green Party the results of completed testings are showing Winchesters Itchen as having a poor water quality which for a place gifted with chalkstreams is a bit gutting.

I dont know what to say but too many years of austerity and refusals to commit to change have left us with this.

Time for change.. really, please consider forcing whichever MP you are stuck with until the general election, consider saturating your council with Green representatives and let's get started advocating for our waterways as well as our neighbourhoods.
@ZackPolanski may be your national Green rep, but your local reps are your local neighbours. Email them, talk to them. Ask them the hard questions.

"The government has asked its new employment rights watchdog to reduce the regulatory burden on business,.. a request that worker advocates said risks turning the agency into “a dead duck”.

Of course it has. This is the self-declared government of business.
