By the time it gets to London the water is many times recycled sewage.

Too right!

The Lea starts beyond Luton and the 18,000,000L of spring water are
augmented by 48,000,000L (these are old figures) of treated sewage at
East Hyde.
I used to chuckle watching my father's cows cock their tails while
standing in the river knowing that some of this would be pumped out at
Chingford to supply part of North London.


Far enough for the MPs?
