Stop Sewage Dumping
5 Mar 2026
Water companies pumped sewage into our rivers, lakes and seas more than 1 million times over the past three years.
The previous Conservative Government let them get away with it and wanted taxpayers to pay to fix the problem.
Water companies need to clean up their own mess and stop dumping sewage in our water. Check out the situation in our local rivers here: Bedford Water Recycling Centre - Live sewage discharge information
It's time for a new Clean Water Authority to replace Ofwat, and a ban on water company executive bonuses until sewage dumping ends. We must end this sewage scandal.
