Why does London need a super sewer?

[OwlHoot]

As much of it seems to be rain water why does it all need to go to a sewage plant?

They probably need as much water as they can get to keep the pipes and conduits swilled out as best they can, rather like the average person needs to drink 5 litres of water a day or whatever it is.

It will make a change - instead of LOndon watching all its earned taxes go to scroungers in the suburbs(like Guildford) it will actually go to LOndon for once!
