Your editorial regarding the record release of raw sewage into our rivers and seas is yet another example of this government’s inability to protect British citizens. The deliberate underfunding of the Environment Agency under the guise of ‘cost-cutting’ exposes individuals to illness and disease, as well as damaging those tourist areas which depend on water activities.

Leaving the EU was supposed to deliver extra money for the NHS, but the government’s refusal to talk sensibly to our doctors and nurses has inflicted on us the longest waiting lists for surgery, tests and GP appointments in our history.
