Waste company prosecuted for operating without an environmental permit

Please keep a close eye on this story and follow up. Maybe I'm just a grumpy old cynic but I'm betting next thing we hear will be that the company has gone into liquidation and someone else will have to pay the clean-up costs. It won't be the first or last time. Probably time we updated the old adage - "Where there's muck, there's dodgy buggers"

Good to hear that environment vandal Endurmeta Ltd were prosecuted their by NRW, although the sum director Ian Glasbrook was fined is peanuts with the pollution caused. What should happen if he refuses to clean up properly the site should be jailed and have his company shut down and assets seized. Pity those Conservative ministers in government at Westminster in 1966 responsible for overseeing NCB (National Coal Board) with the Aberfan disaster never faced similar justice for the unlawful killing 116 children and 28 adults. But it shows you when the British state and establishment are responsible those ministers culpable always evade justice for their crimes. Let's hope similar will happen to those eco scumbags Merthyr (South Wales (Ltd) who with the Ffos-y-Fran opencast mine who not only wrecked further an already abused landscape, made locals lives a living hell, illegally mined when its license ended, but also reneged on a promise to restore the land leaving it to become a toxic slurry pool slowly festering. Sadly the Welsh Labour lapdogs we were powerless or unwilling to act. This must never happen again and why we need control over policing and our criminal justice system from our Whitehall abuser. A Plaid Welsh Government in power will not bend over like our Welsh Labour lapdogs. They will stand tall not crawl. Also a thing to ponder all. Remember that Nigel Farage and Reform UK have stated they want to reindustrialise Wales by opening up new & old mines. This means more opencast mines on a similar scale as Ffos-y-Fran. Worse still. Reform if in power seeing their anti-devolution agenda will try to repatriate powers back to like-minded anti-Wales UK Labour. So be forewarned those willing to self-harm that who live beneath future would-be Aberfans. You are next! There's will be a future Reform/Conservative coalition government at Westminster after this toxic Tory UK Labour lose the next general election if the polls continue on their downward spiral. It's a cert a ConForm Westminster government, like Blue Labour before them, will interfere again in matters devolved to Wales. They will try to bypass the Plaid Cymru Welsh Government in Cardiff. Then later attempt to abolish our Senedd Cymru without a vote. Farage has implied so. He, Farage, said said that only Whitehall had the power to abolish our Senedd Cymru. A ConForm government at Westminster would. And if they achieve their undemocratic goal, will use and abuse Wales into submission like Geoffrey Epstein did minors on his island. Back to the bad old days where we had no voice. No power. No hope. Poverty rules. This is our future with direct rule.
