The Severn Navigation Restoration Trust is a so called public/private partnership to restore the navigation. i.e. Public money to vandalise a beautiful river. It's bad enough when mill and factory owners canalise rivers, but at least they paid taxes to the rest of us and provided a service. For power boaters to not only to do the same thing, but to try to get government grants for it is outrageous. I don’t deny that the Severn has problems. The Lake Vyrnwy reservoir, ground pumping, and abstraction by water companies and farmers, often seriously compromise the flow, and the problems have been worsened by 40 years of mismanagement by the Severn River Authority, the Seven Trent Water Authority and the National Rivers Authority. However to argue for “collective and urgent action by the Environment Agency and existing and potential users” is to ask the arsonist to put out the fire! Email their organiser.
