Calls have been made for a "state of emergency" to be declared at one UK beach after untreated sewage was pumped into the sea.
Councillors in North East Lincolncshire have bemoaned the quality of water in Grimsby and Cleethorpes after untreated sewage was discharged into rivers and the sea.
Cleethorpes Beach's loss of Blue Flag status featured significantly in the debate around the area's water quality at a recent full council meeting.
