England’s Rivers Allowed to Run Rotten

This shouldn't fill anyone with confidence about any UK government boast about its commitment to environmental issues (https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/dec/22/target-date-for-cleaning-up-waterways-in-england-is-moved-back-by-36-years). No English waterway is currently in good environmental health. In spite of this, the target date to clean up most of England's rivers, lakes and coastal waters, from agricultural and sewage pollution, have been now been pushed back by 30+ years. But, we are really focused on saving our environment. Honest!
