And some big water companies pouring sewage in rivers, and sea, and government do nothing to stop this big company??

sideshowdav :

Poor lady, if she simply got a job with a water company instead of a fine for pollution she’d have gotten a bailout

bradreddington :

The police have time for someone dumping a cup of coffee but not for catching grapists.

god the UK is nothing but a bad joke anymore

AutisticPositive :

So if poured into the road would this be ok as it’s not down a street drain

declan :

Do they really want us to chuck liquids into city bins instead?

Master(rage)bator :

Make sense water from storm drains usually go directly to rivers.

Clare Bear :

I had no idea about this law

@35divaD :

It’s been U turned and she hasn’t had to pay it

They would have had to prove the pollution and wouldn't succeed.
