MP calls for urgent removal of 'toxic' waste dump

An MP has slammed the Environment Agency for not tackling “toxic” waste near a primary school in Greater Manchester. Simons questioned the logic of classifying a toxic dump on fire by a school as anything less than “exceptional.” He highlighted the agency’s decision to invest millions in clearing a site in Oxfordshire, arguing it shows blatant disregard for his constituents in Bickershaw, Wigan.
