Judge says firm tried to mislead regulator over incident involving millions of litres of undiluted waste polluting water near Gatwick
Thames Water has been fined £3.3m for a “reckless” incident in which millions of litres of undiluted sewage was pumped into rivers near Gatwick, killing 1,700 fish.
Politicians have said this is more proof that the beleaguered company, which was recently revealed to be facing financial collapse, should be reformed.
