🚨 STOP BIG CHICKEN CHOKING OUR RIVERS Big Chicken: A Fast Food Conspiracy has landed on @NetflixUK , exposing the hidden costs of our obsession with cheap chicken. Here in the UK, our rivers are already paying the price. Every year, more than 1 BILLION chickens are reared in the UK, producing 3.5 million tonnes of manure. In many areas, there's already more waste than the land can safely absorb. When rain washes this pollution into rivers, it fuels toxic algal blooms, kills wildlife and damages precious habitats. ✍️ TAKE ACTION. Tell the Government to ditch its Poultry Growth Plan and support farming that protects our rivers instead of polluting them. SIGN THE PETITION: bit.ly/4w9IRGm

🚨 ENGLAND'S RESERVOIRS COULD RUN DRY BEFORE CHRISTMAS. A major investigation by @thetimes has uncovered secret Government warnings of a potential 'Day Zero' water crisis, with some reservoirs at risk of running completely dry. THIS IS A FRESHWATER EMERGENCY. Drought, pollution, leaking pipes and years of underinvestment are putting our rivers, water supplies and future at risk. But this crisis is solvable. With the right leadership and investment, we can turn things around. The Government must declare a national freshwater emergency and deliver a funded plan to secure our water future. Because if we don't act now, the UK will run dry. thetimes.com/article/7812e10…

Thames Water is failing its customers and our rivers. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. Special Administration offers a way out of this crisis, a chance to put people and nature before creditors. Tell the PM to act now 👇 riveractionuk.com/email-andy…

🚨 THAMES WATER: ENOUGH TALK. TIME FOR ACTION. Prime Minister Andy Burnham has reportedly ordered officials to rethink plans for rescuing Thames Water. Good. But Thames Water doesn't need another bailout for wealthy investors. It needs a fresh start through Special Administration. The Government MUST put people and rivers before private profits. It's time to end the cycle of debt, pollution and failure. EMAIL THE PRIME MINISTER. Tell the Government: Don't prop up a system that has already failed. Use Special Administration to secure a better future for Thames Water. 🔗 Take action now: riveractionuk.com/email-andy… #ThamesWater #SpecialAdministration #RescueOurRivers

🚨 £5 BILLION SPENT. BUT IS THE THAMES ANY CLEANER? Despite London's £5bn Thames Tideway Tunnel being built to tackle sewage pollution, independent testing by @ReachBoat has found no clear improvement in E. coli levels. Led by Chief Executive Adam Freeman-Pask, the club has been testing the Thames weekly, with shocking results: 💩 62.5% of water samples taken since February 2025 exceeded E. coli levels considered a human health risk. 👏 Huge thanks to Adam and his team for their vital work exposing the reality of pollution in the Thames. ✊ TAKE ACTION: Over 5,000 people have already emailed the Prime Minister demanding Special Administration for Thames Water. 👉 Add your voice.

🚨 Water companies have made at least £1.4 BILLION from industrial wastewater in six years. Our investigation with @Watershed_i reveals: 💰 Water companies reported £336 million in trade-effluent revenue in 2025/26 alone, with reported revenues almost doubling since 2020/21. 🏭 607.6 billion litres of industrial wastewater was consented to enter sewage treatment works last year. That’s enough to fill around 242,000 Olympic swimming pools! This wastewater can contain substances including PFAS, cyanide, mercury and pharmaceuticals. These chemicals enter our waterways and contaminate sewage sludge, which is spread on our land and used to grow our food. Yet there is no independent regulator overseeing individual trade-effluent consents and no central national register. 🔎 Read our full investigation and uncover the hidden industrial wastewater trade: 👇 riveractionuk.com/news/water…

Say it like it is, Stewart 👏🐔 Our rivers can’t take any more chicken sh💩t. We’re calling for an end to the reckless expansion of industrial poultry production and for Big Chicken to take responsibility for the waste it produces. We need you to help us get to 100k signatures. Sign & share the petition and tell the Government to stop Big Chicken 👉bit.ly/4w9IRGm #BigChicken

🚨 CAMPAIGN UPDATE: We’ve been granted permission to intervene in a major legal case focused on the pollution of the UK's largest freshwater lake, Lough Neagh.

✅ Andy Burnham is right: the public deserve more control over the water companies we all depend on. But a ten-year transition cannot mean ten more years of delay. Thames Water is the immediate test. Government already has powers to act on Thames Water and put it into Special Administration But Special Administration isn't the end of the story - it paves the way for a better one. 📩 Email Andy Burnham today and tell him: put Thames Water into Special Administration without delay 👉 riveractionuk.com/email-andy…

🐔 KFC sponsored a LabourList rally attended by senior Labour ministers. Meanwhile, the Government is promising to clean up our rivers while considering plans to expand intensive poultry farming. We’re demanding answers. 👇

MORE CHICKEN. SAME OLD SH💩T. The Government wants to expand intensive poultry farming. Their plan for all the extra waste? Good question.. 🤔 Our rivers are already choking on chicken poo. Expanding intensive poultry units risks making a dire situation even worse. So as the Labour party gathers for their autumn conference in Liverpool, we’ve been outside on the streets with a simple message: 📢 Serious about cleaning up our rivers? STOP the expansion of Big Chicken Help spread the word. Sign & share the petition and tell the Government to #StopBigChicken 👉bit.ly/4w9IRGm #BigChicken #RiverAction #RiverPollution #Labour

Rivers play a vital role in our lives and in the wellbeing of our planet. When they thrive, so do we.

For years, Thames Water has been feeding a very greedy tiger. The company has been loaded with billions in debt, while its ageing infrastructure has been starved of investment. Pipes are leaking, sewage pollution is rife, customers are being let down and our rivers are paying the price. But the next chapter for Thames Water doesn't have to be more of the same. The Prime Minister has a choice: prop up the same failed system – or use Special Administration to create the opportunity to rebuild Thames Water to serve customers and protect our rivers, not private financial interests. The Government has the power re-write the Thames Water story. Now it must use it. 👉 Email the Prime Minister today and tell him and his Government: don’t prop up a system that has already failed. Use Special Administration to secure a better future for Thames Water.
