Oxford blame ’poo in the water national disgrace’ Multiple rowers from the University of Oxford fell ill with severe E. coli poisoning ahead of the prestigious Boat Race on Saturday. This came after they had issued a cautionary statement a week earlier regarding the high levels of pollution in the River Thames in London. Their coach criticized the conditions as a “national disgrace.“ Although race organizers dismissed speculations surrounding the cause of illness among three rowers who experienced vomiting before the event, activists have pointed out that Thames Water has been permitted to discharge sewage into tributaries.
