How about it's to do with a total lack of concern by the local Councils, water authorities, ships who dump their waste products at sea, even the public, possibly toxic waste washed down from rivers, .......It’s an absolute disgrace that the water companies haven’t invested in water infrastructure while paying dividends to shareholders with the Government sitting back and doing nothing as sewage is pumped into our seas.
What is killing our marine life? Locals are baffled as HUNDREDS of small fish wash up dead on a Cornwall beach – with storms, pollution or even DOLPHINS suspected as the cause Hundreds of mackerel lay dead on Porthgwidden Beach in St Ives yesterday While the cause has yet to be confirmed, social media users had a few ideas They may have been pushed in by dolphins, or killed by a recent sewage dump

Something to be concerned about, definitely! But you need some corroboration from another source — the Mail is about as reliable for facts as Johnson or Trump…

But blaming anyone at the moment, when the video doesn’t actually show that many fish lying on the beach, seems a little premature.
However I do admit, the pollution around Britain’s beaches should concern us all…

There's two things here. We can all have shares in privatised utilities and enjoy a share of the profits. Secondly, after Brexit, the Government's priority should have been getting the rivers and seaside clean, prosecute the fuck out of the polluting perpetrators. The rail system should be fully reinstated to get freight off road. Jobs, slowly decline welfare and get everyone working, anyone who considers a job below them will starve. |

Of the first we all had a share till like the disaster that are the energy companies were privatised. Of the second sure the railways should be reinstated,in to public ownership,the policy of starvation would cause more problems than it solves,working should be rewarded by incentive and not by punishment. The problem we face is Thatchers legacy of those like Blair,Major,Cameron et al who were nothing more than continuity Thatcher. We need new parties and people with ideas to stop the slow decline. |

It's not just Cornwall, a few days ago I listened to a fisherman from the north east (Inshore fisherman small boat 2 man crew) who said his livelihood was suddenly gone when thousands of crabs and lobster simply washed up on the beach dead, and no one knew why. As I listened I thought to myself, surely we would have heard about this in the news, I googled it and found this. Incredible... www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-11430403/Independent-panel-set-look-mass-deaths-crabs-lobsters.html |

Privatisation is so bad, no other party thinks so because Blair, Brown, and Clegg didn't want to reverse any. The problem Thatcher saw was, investment needed for the utilities came out of your pocket, the tax payer. Unfortunately, state owned is inefficient which ties up any chance of real investment, plagued by unions and strikes, and there's no accountability. With privatisation, you pay a higher price, but it depends how much you want to use. Investment is freed up, it doesn't come out of the tax pot. People can buy shares, they have enough for the latest iPhone, fags, NetFlix, Sky TV etc.. but twine that shares are for the rich. Thatcher wanted people to own these utilities, she wanted people to own their own house, the Right to Buy, even Scargill took advantage of that. And for a weird reason, people still bleat on about Thatcher. Thatcher inherited the least number of mines, Labour had closed more than the Tories, but Thatcher's mines had the most employers, hence the miners strikes. So Labour closed more mines, but it's Thatchers fault. UK manufacturing declined under Thatcher. Under Blair, UK manufacturing declined quicker and to a greater extent than under Thatcher, but it's Thatcher's fault. The mind of a lefty is truly bizarre, I put it down to low IQ and inbreeding. |
