Illegal landfills, meanwhile, have no restrictions on what enters them, no lining + no filters. Until strong measures are taken to deal with illegal dumping, people's health will continue to be at risk from the chemicals they can contain.

Historic landfills can contain items we use less today or wouldn't dispose of in landfill. Think lead paint or batteries, asbestos, arsenic. Until relatively recently, there was no requirement to line landfill. Many are in flood or coastal erosion zones.

“The former pupil added: “There were black, Asian and Jewish CCF cadets on the bus. As I say, one of them asked me not to sing it or make those sort of comments. And I didn’t.”

The song, variants of which were heard on English football terraces…, is sung to the tune of George Formby’s Bless Em All. One version runs: “‘Gas em all; Gas em all; Gas em all; And into the showers they crawl; We’ll gas all the niggers; We’ll gas all the Jews; Come on you lads gas em all’.

“I was in the CCF with him from 1979 to 1982 or so,” said one former pupil.
“[Farage] did teach the younger members of the CCF the infamous ‘Gas ’em all’ song, or at least led the singing of it on CCF coaches to training areas,” he claimed.”

Farage, of course, denies it all. But other schoolboys with him confirm eg that he did sing vile songs and taught them to other boys on the coach carrying other schoolboys participating in the CFC. (Combined Cadet Force)

Then we got these gems from Susan Hall:

"It's all this stupid nonsense about offending other people and other religions. Well, blow that. This is supposed to be a Christian country. We have Christmas. Let's celebrate it."

(How is she not embarrassed?!😳)

So, @telegraph.co.uk was off a strong start on the nonsense scale by having to admit the tree was being sold in their Christmas range while in the very next line saying it was being sold with “no reference to Christmas”!🙄

Susan Hall - Leader of the London Conservatives - shared it a few hours later with the words “No no no Tesco they are Christmas trees”

I mean she’s not wrong! They ARE Christmas trees and there’s not a person out there who doesn’t know that! 🤷🏼‍♀️

But we need the faux outrage, apparently!
