Campaigners warn of record storm sewage overflows in River Mole, with Thames Water pumping over 4,500 hours of untreated sewage into the river. Residents affected by sewage flooding compare it to living in the 18th century. Water companies are urged to address river sewage issues, as incidents of sewage spills and pollution exercises are reported in various locations, including Dorset, London, and the Lake District. An investigation is ongoing into a landfill site in Telford following complaints of a foul smell.
