Campaigners invite environmental secretary to football to ask him to ‘play fair’ on water crisis
We Own It campaigners outside the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs with a giant match-day ticket, May 7, 2025
Focus on equal access to assisted death rather than risks of legalisation for oppressed groups wrongheaded, MPs and campaigners say
ACTIVISTS have sought to influence Environment Secretary Steve Reed by copying tactics deployed by water companies: inviting him to the football.
In a stunt supported by utility campaign group We Own It, constituent Lois Davis invited Mr Reed, her MP, to see this season’s final Crystal Palace home game in a bid to get him to “play fair” on privatised water.
Arriving at Defra on Tuesday, they carried a giant match-day ticket inviting the minister to the game to discuss how to fix the privatised water crisis.
