THE fatcat boss of a shamed water firm that has pumped 72 billion litres of sewage into the Thames since 2020 flew to Argentina to fish at a pristine spot.
Chris Weston, who has a salary package of up to £2.3million, visited a posh angling retreat on the Rio Gallegos, where stays start at £9,000.
Regulator Ofwat fined his firm Thames Water, Britain's biggest water company, £104million in August for failing to manage its wastewater treatment works and sewer networks.
Since 2020, it has pumped sewage equivalent in volume to the contents of 29,000 Olympic-sized swimming pools into London's River Thames.
The Environment Agency fined it nearly £36m between 2017 and 2023 for pollution incidents. And a year ago, it was ordered by Ofwat to repay £74m to 16 million customers for failing to meet performance targets.
