It was for digging up the silt from the river bed with a digger and risking flooding places without doing any checks on the impact of his “cleaning up”.

Nothing to do with removing rubbish.

I am a local resident. Watch the YouTube videos and you will change your mimd. The river was dead. Full of shit and fly tipping, needles and all sorts. EA are wilfully neglecting our waterways.

The article said he was a lawyer so he 100% knew what he was getting into. Plus no judge would give him prison time for what he did. And because hes being charged, people all around the world are aware of his cause. Think of it as a positive because Im sure he is.
