I AM writing in response to the article stating that water bills will rise.

I find this absolutely ridiculous and unfair. The public is being made to pay for the pollution Thames Water has recently done to our supply in the area.

How much damage caused has not been publicised but it was enough to kill 8,000 fish. What becomes of our so called fresh water?

The people of Swindon should stand up to Thames Water and say no. We should find the root of its pollution and the full extent of damage done to our local wildlife and water supply.
