Good for the fascists.
Isn't this what the agency themselves should be doing?
HI,ALL,(. REMEMBER THIS GOVERNMENT HAS TO BLAME AND THE COMPANY,s GET RICH AND WE THE UK PUBLIC HAVE TO PAY OR TAX MONEY AGAIN, ????
Wow, I just love such ppl, coming up with such great initiatives and giving up their time, bravo👏 Of course, the government's hasn't been giving two hoots about such issues. I honestly think that if Britain was to all of a sudden lose all her volunteers, the country would collapse within days.

Scottish waters no where near in this state. Run off from farmland our major pollutant in rivers and even then eat lower than England and it's private water failure
The Tories have a lot to answer for
