The heads of the water boards have a legal obligation to make money for shareholders. They are simply doing capitalism. Without regulation this is what corporations do.
The politicians who have weakened the environmental regulations and allowed them to poison our rivers, lakes and seas should be prosecuted for treason. If a foreign power deliberately polluted our country it would be an act of war.
I did see a news report the other night with a 2 foot by 2 foot pipe. It stated that the effluent that went into our waterways and sea in 12 months was the equivalent of that pipe emptying non stop for 50 years. That was incredible to me. I'm sure I saw that France- Paris I think has been the first- have started building very large underground containment units which just hold storm water, to stop human waste spilling into rivers caused by overflowing sewer systems in bad weather. So it can be done. A lot of other damage is of course caused by effluent run off from farms and business so that's a different problem.
Here it is

That's a nice article from 2011, when as you say they closed the Council Greenhouse, and you actual quote was
I simply pointed out that there was a whole load of plants in tubs last summer, all through the city - link you want is it?
https://madeinderbyshire.org/news/floral-decoration-cathedral-quarter-and-st-peters-quarterOh and you also said
seemingly oblivious to the fact that they have been repaving the Spot and Victoria St for the last few months and are currently doing Albert St. This is it today
But I get it, it's nice to have a moan about stuff you imagined up in your own noggin
Blimey, a couple of hundred metres that have replaced and directly opposite a market place and theatre that needed millions extra spending on it after it was bodged together for a fiver. Probably been costing millions in compo cases
You insinuated that there had been no change to the planting in Derby in a sneering b******* manner which I know is normally the way you respond to posts on here. You didn't simply respond as it's not your way. I showed this was incorrect.

Monkey Man
I was very tired so struggled to connect as much as I should ...but it's a film a lot of people on here are going to like.
@Comrade 86you suggested Sisu, it felt similar but errrrrr.. different to that!
Immersed in a very different culture, a slightly unlikely hero, really gritty brutal action scenes.
Meant to mention this one. Goes a bit over John Wick but entertaining

Netflix...where the Crawdads sing, About an abusive Father who beats his wife and kids while living in the marshes of South Carolina, When one by one Mum and kids leave, Leaving only 1 Daughter left with the Dad...Kya.
Not my cup o tea...but kept watching, Kya must have been around 10 when Dad decides to leave leaving Kya alone, The story then revolves around her and men and social services and a murder.
A little strange but I thought it got better as the film moved along...7-10
Enjoyed this one. watched it last year.

Seems so. 20 million loan from MSD as well.

Looking through West Brom’s retained list, they have a huge amount of players out of contract and been offered or released.
karlan grant is one that caught my eye though, returning to them from a loan spell. Think could be a good option for a loan, doubt would cost much at the end of it.
Pretty sure they took loans against their training facilities recently, which as we know heads one way. I'd expect a much inferior squad their going forward after missing out this time.

They removed them for the winter, but I guess it's easier to imagine that you haven't seen them and you just want to have a moan
That's the Derby way! 😂
That the best you can do rather than have a proper debate. Short hand s*** housing. I'll leave it with you . Enjoy your walk round the river gardens but keep your stick handy to fend of the local wildlife Stevie Wonder.

Might be a dump but it’s our dump. LOVE DERBY
We all do. That's why I get pissed of with unnecessary deline. Some of it's socio-economic but a large part is appalling planning, lack of spending and general disregard. When did you last see a plant in a tub since they closed the glasshouse at Markeaton or actively repairing a pavement other than putting a large block of tarmac in a hole in place of a slab. If you compare the look of the city centre from mid 90's to now it's frightening.

Not hard to spot the Which? members, is it?😉
Seriously, there's some major pearl-clutching going on with some people. I couldn't argue that the city centre hasn't been badly neglected in recent years (thank you, Austerity George) or that the City Council of whatever hue are responsible for some awful planning decisions since WW2, but to describe the place as "feral" is utter hyperbole.
I still go out in the city centre at night both with mates and with the missus and the 'threat' is marginal compared to central London at midnight or somewhere like Canning Town any time of day.
From London Road to the Market Place is feral. I cross the Railway bridge onto Midland Road regularly. A few weeks ago I witnessed someone stooped in the rain, off their tits, taking a s*** on the pavement opposite the Midland Hotel, another pale shadow of what it was. Also had the pleasure of seeing a heavily pregnant woman in just a bra being carried up St Peter's Street at 5pm by two blokes screaming her head off and also off her tits to match the ones on display. Derby city Centre is feral

Rotherham want Sibley, I’d cry if that happened. Cant see any chance of it though.
He'd cry after a week of being their under lard arse. He has an offer of a contract here and he'd be better off signing it for an undoubted larger wage for a year and actually showing he can play well at this level, than stepping back down for possibly 3 years and his career going down the crapper. 12 months over and a good season, he'll have offers again here and from other championship clubs.

29, 6 goals in 3 years and a lot of time of the bench at League 1 level. Must strive for better

Derby City Centre is the biggest sh!t hole and an intimidating place to be...the only place I have visited worse is Rhyl.
The city centre has changed dramatically over the last 20 years and its such a shame.
A special place. per head of population the UK's murder capital. Bangor in Wales was also a treat. Like St Peter's Street but miles of it. Stoke and Doncaster are also beauties. I've been to worse than Derby but it is s**** and even the remaining nice bit Sadlergate and Irongate have basically emptied over two years. The last bit of art deco are the council house and bit at the top of Irongate. The remainder went with Debenhams to build something out of Escape from New York. To be honest though, most cities and towns outside the well established tourist magnets are becoming increasingly horrific. Last time I went from The Spot to the Market Place without the protection of glass windows was about two years ago. The whole area is feral as all the shopping was dumped into a big grey box which a small city would never accommodate whilst keeping the rest alive . My mate got off the bus on Babington Lane at 8 in the morning a few years ago on his way too work. Had to step over a bloke being held down by police with what looked like a mouthful of meat. Turned the corner and another bloke was walking around with most of an ear missing. Society is going down the s****** everywhere unabated.

As much as I love the city I was born in and would never want to leave. I have to agree with the survey, Derby is a dump. Over the years the city elders have allowed what historic buildings we had to be destroyed. Those that remain are never shown at their best.
It hasn't helped that there doesn't appear to be a proper vision of what the city should look like. Going right back to the sixties, any plan there may have been as never been implemented. Over the years the council have allowed a mish-mash of buildings across the city.
Look at the latest project that is taking place on the former site of the Pennine Hotel. Wouldn't it have been better to build this venue on a main thoroughfare. Instead of tucking it behind the ugly appartment block that as been erected on Victoria Street.
The Market Place is a waste land, when is the Market Hall going to be completed and what and when is something going to be done with the Assembly Rooms?
They won't repair it but can't knock it down as it's a near perfect example of Brutalist architecture it seems. No use to anyone, anytime soon. Was quite a nice building there before it seems that belonged to Erasmus Darwin and a 15th century pub . There's a plaque in the piss filled car park where it used to be

Any list that ranks Portsmouth a better place for a short break than Manchester, Brighton or Leeds can be safely ignored.
Wasn't overly enamoured. More angry people on something, demanding a donation for more, than most places at the end of the evening.

Other than the 3 teams who just came down, I wonder who else is still getting parachute payments in the Championship next year
Must be a few. Possibly time to start saying you can have the money but have to have a legacy of starting on minus points for every X amount of million you take. If not, Ipswich will be very much the exception. Bournemouth had a wage bill of about 71 million and 60 million quid of forwards last time around with a 9k attendance. It's gone crazy.

Not sure what the contract looks like, but he’s been offered the biggest deal ever in Preston’s history - larger than what both Sheff Utd and Coventry have offered.
I’ve got to guess it’s going to be in excess of £35-40k a week. All the will in the world, well beyond what we’re going to be offering.
Sheff Utd were that desperate for cash last championship campaign they refused to thaw out the training pitch leading to a nasty injury to one of their better players. Think they had a pointless embargo for unpaid transfers fess as well. Even on promotion they flogged their two best players. I can't really see tham paying that. Coventry were flush last season after a large cash in on a player but are they still in that wage market this time around .? Don't know. Thats a big old wage.

Alan Browne (29) CM likely to be available on a free from PNE. Would be another solid champ signing
I'd heard he may be Boro or Coventry bound. I seem to recall he was more of a physical player than fleet of foot and creator or scorer of goals. An option over Adams if Cardiff won't budge or someone else pays what they want. Wages would be considerable I'd think if were up against a couple of clubs with a better chance of promotion. So Adams overall may be cheaper with a fee over 3 years. We are in a league now where free agents will want very good wages if there good enough to still play at this level to a standard of midtable or above. We need some though to help the rest.

Nathan Trott has an extraordinary record in Denmark, it took me a while to find the numbers but I can see why he’s so highly regarded, especially on the back of this season.
XGOT - expected goal on target.
He had a XGOT of 51.2 goals and he conceded 35. 75% save percentage.
The numbers may even be the close to being the best in Europe, I’ve never seen a disparity like that personally.
Could it be that most of the strikers in Denmark will be b******* . I've seen a lot of shots on target and a lot aren't very good. I'd imagine the average striker in Denmarks top division is about League 1 standard.

3 and a half years since he's played, with a promotion bonus, increase in wage on promotion and a one year extension trigger. Makes Anya look like a steal.
Are we still paying for Nick Blackman to take his mates on a bus tour round Europe though on 22 k a week, or have we knocked that one on the head.
