> As a consequence of this there are some rivers, lakes and beaches in England + Wales that are now unsafe but which weren't before they were privatised.
Carefully chosen words, someone has done their research!
Thats what happens when new standards come into force and improve upon the old standards.
"The purpose of this dataset is to present a summary of bathing water compliance in England between 1988 and 2014 against the old bathing water directive (76/160/EEC), which was repealed on the 31/12/2014"
However I'm not against better standards, but I am against some of the "engineered" methods used to gain those standards....
You're going to have to do a bit more than hand-waving about a bathing water directive being repealed back in 2014 and dumping a couple of links. If you want to make a point, make it.
There's lots of factors at play here, it could be brexit related because the beachs have become soiled so people go to Europe for a break, we dont know who is invested in Thames water, are these british pension funds or other types of investors. Is this a sexism thing, what with a female ceo, has she been wrongly advised, manipulated with data presented in a particular way.
There's so many factors potentially at play here and some of it we wont get to ever know about, but life has taught me there is manipulation in many guises.
Wait before you were certain I was some sneaky trickster doing wordplay and that you had a slam dunk of a response, now “there’s lots of factors at play here”?
Nothing has changed, I simply didnt document all my thoughts on here straight away because its not a Rorschach test, besides I let google suggest some of the links, because I've noted how manipulative it is at shaping public discourse.

As I was saying, some things are engineered....
