Again, I could smell what I thought was ‘the sea’ in Leigh-on-Sea today, but now I’m not so sure. To think I might literally be smelling the stench of human shit wafting across the town from a mile away is pretty depressing.
I through a ball into the ocean and watched the waves bring it back to shore.
Im about to try with a turd lets see what happens……
The shit has hit the sand…
It should be illegal to discharge sewage into the sea or rivers, except where necessary to avoid flooding which would endanger life.
The government will never do that though.
People seriously need to be held accountable for this
