"An obscene mountain of rubbish that has been dumped illegally next to a river in Oxfordshire has been described as utterly appalling by Sir Keir Starmer. The fly tip in a field alongside the A34 and close to the River Cherwell in Kidlington has reached 150 metres long, 10 metres wide and 12 metres high, according to local MP Calum Miller."
An obscene mountain of illegally dumped rubbish beside the River Cherwell in Kidlington, Oxfordshire measures roughly 150 metres long, 10 metres wide and 12 metres high. Local MP Calum Miller reported the dimensions and Friends of the Thames provided imagery. The Environment Agency acted quickly, launched a criminal investigation, and is working with partner organisations to assess pollution risks and protect the natural environment. The prime minister directed the regulator to use all available powers to ensure perpetrators pay clean-up costs. The Independent solicits donations to fund on-the-ground journalists, operates without paywalls, and asks readers to support quality journalism.
