A bid to criminalise water companies that fail to tackle sewage has failed.
The Liberal Democrats had proposed an amendment to the Criminal Justice Bill that would have created new offences if firms did not do enough to deal with spills.
But the measure failed on Wednesday after Tory MPs voted against and Labour members abstained.
Labour abstain, can’t even decide if it’s bad to sh@t in the lake or not 🤦
I dont care if it’s not tactical at this point, I’m voting green at the next election.
I will probably do the same. Never really understood tactical voting. Is it just so you can say you voted for the winner? Realistically one vote here or there is unlikely to swing it so surely just vote for the candidate/party you want regardless of their chances?
Yeah I feel like tactical voting just encourages you to settle for the least worst option and helps lead to a two party system.
Labour abstained because they think they are going to win the next GE and don’t want to actually have to enforce that law, or fail to and then be dragged for it.
That really dose not sound any better then. OPs “can’t even decide”
Not wanting to enforce a law. Why. Its down to the justice department and EA to enfoce it.
We don’t want to basically means they don’t plan to provide any resources to clean up our water but just plan to win the election based on how shit tories are. Without commiting to doing anything better.

Nationalise the water companies. They’re not human and thus have no rights.
Clean water is woke
Everyone knows, true republicans only drink beer and coke. But only non diet coke, as less calories is woke.
We never did find out why Mr. Trump drank diet rather than full
sugarcorn syrup coke.
