Redgrave meets Environment Sec over Thames pollution

Olympic gold medallist rower Sir Steve Redgrave has handed a letter to the environment secretary Steve Reed to share his and young people's concerns about "effluent being put into the rivers, and how dirty and vile they are".

Head of Communities at River Action Erica Popplewell says she feels "encouraged" that the government has banned bonuses for pollutant water bosses, but wants to see further action.
