摘要

The London Assembly Liberal Democrats have obtained figures showing that more than 30 billion liters of raw sewage was pumped into the Thames in the last year -the equivalent of more than 33 Olympic size swimming pools of effluent entering the river every day, they say. Liberal Democrat London Assembly environment spokesperson, Mike Tuffrey, said: "These figures are an absolute disgrace. Londoners are having to put up with huge amounts of sewage being pumped into the Thames every week. It is bad for the environment, bad for human health and bad for the image of our city." He added: "It is incredible that despite all the predictions that global warming would cause more violent storms and heavier downpours, London's sewer system is totally unprepared and unable to cope and pumping millions of tones of raw sewage into the Thames." The Liberal Democrats in London have called for a government commitment to build the interceptor tunnel that would prevent the regular deluges of raw sewage into the Thames.
