The former Undertones front man described continued sewage releases into the sea as "simply scandalous"Singer Feargal Sharkey has joined protesters on Kent's Tankerton beach to hit out at pollution by Southern Water.
SOS Whitstable, which staged the demo, said the firm's data showed it released 648 hours of sewage, on 208 occasions, into the sea at Whitstable in 2022.But Sharkey said: "It is simply scandalous - I'm fairly certain that that's exactly why this has become the huge political issue. "That you put your trust in the system. You bring your children to beaches like this on a Bank Holiday Monday, later discover those children were swimming in somebody else's waste."Boxer Barry McGuigan, who also joined the protest at the weekend, said: "I've lived here 34 years. Tankerton is just down the road from us. That is the busiest tipping point in Kent.
