Why is the canal and river trust needing to fundraise to clean up a company's mess?
Surely you can't be advocating for for-profit private companies to pay for their own mess? What would the shareholders think?
How are we supposed to continue to create wealth for those who don't need any more wealth if we demand they use their own ill gotten gains to clean up their mess?
That doesn't make any sense at all!
