James O'Brien Daily

The Thames Water Scandal


Listen Later

Thames Water has been fined £122.7m for breaching rules over sewage spills and shareholder payouts - the biggest penalty in water company history. How did we let them get away with it and whose fault is it that we're only waking up to this now?

And, people caught driving illegal e-scooters will see their vehicles crushed within 48 hours under new police powers. James thinks they’re a scourge on society, but is painfully aware he sounds like an old git in saying so - what do you think?

This episode was recorded on the 28th May. Catch James O'Brien weekdays from 10am on LBC.
