we are in the cotswolds. not revolution. so, it's a spectacular place to visit and will be taking a look around this morning. some of these plants will need water. it's been dry, will that continue into the weekend? let's take a look at the weekend? let's take a look at the forecast. the overwhelming story this weekend for the vast majority is for it staying dry. most places dry, warm in the sunshine as well. a bit cooler around some of the coasts but a pleasant day in—store. some cloud rolling in. if you look at the pressure chart, high pressure is in charge. a weather front moving into the north of scotland which bring a bit more cloud and some patchy drizzle at times. but of thoroughly wet day. sunny spells for northern ireland, sunnis conditions for england and wales. cloud will bubble up england and wales. cloud will bubble up again this afternoon across the north of england, north wales. even if temperatures are down a bit, up to 22 in the south—west. a bit fresher in the south—east and over scotland. a

this weather has been the subject of a very long running public campaign by people here in the cotswolds the sewage companies accountable. the water companies are also aware about impatience within government. the government wants things to be moving faster. in terms of what has been promised, the headline figure is £10 billion. that is a proposed figure at the moment, it does have to be approved by the water regulator and if it is approved, it will mean, as i mentioned in that report, a series of measures improving the pipe network, increasing the capacity of sewage treatment plants and more sewage treatment plants and more sewage can be treated and a series of other measures. there will be, if it is approved, that £10 billion of investment running up to 2030. i think we should all bear in mind when they talk about investing £10 billion, effectively, that is £10 billion, effectively, that is £10 billion of our money in future bills. that money will be borrowed and we will have to pay it back incrementally over several years. to fix this huge problem across the uk of an ageing sewage net
