Was that the same security services you dumped to visit ‘ex’ KGB colonel Alexander Lebedev and party in Umbria just after the Novichok Salisbury attack? Or the same security services whose advice you defied to put his son Evgeny in the House of Lords? Those security services?

These would be the same Security Services you evaded, in order to attend a Russian oligarch's party, would they Boris? The thing to remember about any Johnson statement is that the only thought that will have preceded it is "Will this make me look good?". That's all that matters to him... 🤮

UK water companies made £340m by pouring billions of litres of industrial/commercial wastewater into sewage treatment works. Treatment works are not designed to remove most chemicals, leaving pollutants to pass into rivers, seas and farmland. Investment neglected. Practices are mostly unregulated.
