It's funny that we didn't have all this sewage in rivers and beaches when we were in the EU.
And it didn't seem to cost us billions on our water bills.
🤔🤔🤔🤔
I smell a Brexit opportunity.

Brexit was a massive mistake.
The big problem is that before, in the EU, there was a common framework for measuring quality/ranking beaches. Now, I don't know how things are measured, or what the numbers mean in a wider context.
This report is from 2015...

...and seems to be showing that the UK has always had bad beaches. But I don't know if the 2022 UK numbers are still using the same criteria.
