CronxWatch video plumbs the murky depths of Thames Water

CronxWatch’s latest video report is out, taking a close look into the murky depths of monopoly supplier Thames Water.

From Thames Water’s company’s head office in Reading, to the much-polluted River Wandle, via the Croydon Water Tower, Cronxwatch tries to find out exactly why our bills are rising while our service deteriorates, and what the government is planning to do about it, as evermore sewage gets pumped into our rivers, streams and waterways.

CronxWatch is Croydon-centric video journalism with a YouTube twist. Think Brass Eye meets Private Eye, but for the internet age.

Founder and lead reporter David Weir says, “We mix long-form deep dives into national issues, seen through a local lens, with shorter reports into hyperlocal controversies.

“And all tackled with a much-needed sense of humour – because if you didn’t laugh, you’d cry.”
