Liberal Democrat leader Sir Ed Davey took a dive into Lake Windermere while paddleboarding as he outlined his party's plan to tackle the sewage crisis. Local Lib Dem candidate Tim Farron joined his party leader at Low Wood Bay Watersports Centre where the pair had mixed success, being pictured taking multiple plunges.
During his visit to the Lake District, Sir Ed said local environmental experts should be represented on water companies’ boards to ensure sewage spills are taken seriously, as he accused Conservative ministers of “sitting on their hands”. Under the Lib Dems’s plans, local environment experts within the community would sit on utility firms’ boards as nonexecutive directors to “improve public accountability and transparency”. The experts would also be expected to hold community meetings to report back on action being taken.
