We urgently need to ban destructive bottom trawl-fishing in the UK's marine protected areas. This practice:
❌ Hoovers up marine wildlife
❌ Destroys vital habitat from corals to seagrass
❌ Deepens the climate crisis
Why is the government delaying?

Government misses deadline to restrict destructive fishing practices
Labour inherited target from Conservatives to protect UK waters, which are under threat from harmful actions such as bottom trawling and dredging

“Thames Water intentionally diverted millions of pounds pledged for environmental clean-ups towards other costs including bonuses and dividends.”
I almost wrote ‘unbelievable’, but this is only too believable.

#Privatisation - a few profit and the rest of us pay.
Why oh why will Sir Keir Starmer's government not take the obvious step and bring water companies back into public hands, to be run for public good? As @greenparty.org.uk has long demanded?

Thames Water is clearly not fit for purpose.
“The embattled company saw a 40% increase in pollution incidents in the six months to 30 September, as its debts continued to swell.”
Rather than letting them increase bills, they need to be renationalised.
