Thames Water boss quits after sewage spills

The chief executive of Thames Water has stepped down after two years in the role, weeks after giving up her bonus over sewage spills. Thames Water said Sarah Bentley would leave with immediate effect, but would continue to support the firm until her replacement was found. "It has been an honour to take on such a significant challenge, and a privilege to serve Thames Water's dedicated and inspirational colleagues," Ms Bentley said. Responding to the resignation, the Liberal Democrats' environment spokesperson Tim Farron said: "This has to be a watershed moment for the scandal-ridden company. Thames Water is a complete mess and it's time ministers stepped in to reform the firm from top to bottom. The days of profit before the environment must end."
