Thames Water to pay £373k after polluting chalk stream in Basingstoke Thames Water has been ordered to pay £373,000 after discharging raw sewage into the River Loddon in Basingstoke.

Feargal Sharkey on X
"Thames Water pays £373,000 for environmental damage."

They'll simply put it down as a cost of doing business. It's meaningless, absolutely meaningless. You wanna fix this, someone has to go to jail.

I'm just relieved nobody is talking about how I said I bought a house in Clacton, then admitted it was in the name of my girlfriend, Laure Ferrari, even though she couldn't afford £885,000, which conveniently meant I avoided £44,000 in tax.
Please don't share.

First turbine of wind farm off Suffolk has record-breaking blades One revolution will generate enough electricity to charge 1,700 mobile phones, says a power company.

Fun fact: the under-construction East Anglia Three offshore wind farm is being fitted with the longest blades yet used in UK waters.

Each blade (manufactured in Hull) is longer than a football field. The rotor diameter is 236 m – it's hard to understand the scale of these machines!
