CORNWALLBASED charity Surfers Against Sewage is travelling the length of the UK in a double-decker tour bus to demand General Election candidates end sewage pollution.
The charity’s ‘Election Road Trip’ aims to highlight the “dire state of our rivers and seas as a key issue for voters at the General Election in July”, and stops in Plymouth today and in St Agnes, Cornwall, on Saturday.
The campaign tour aims to take the sewage debate to political, sewage and surfing hot-spots, with all candidates invited to answer questions from locals at a series of hustings events.
The tour began with a demonstration at Lake Windermere alongside local campaigner Matt Staniek, followed by hustings in locations including Edinburgh.
