It's 2024 and this is still happening. They are killing our kids and this Tory bastard government will not put a stop to it. @AaronBell4NUL has had his chance but he chose to take a government job so he literally cannot bring this up in parliament anymore. #StopTheStink

Monday 18/03/24 06:15 It stinks a toxic stench this morning, thanks to Walleys Quarry landfill. @EnvAgency @NewsNBC what exactly was the suspension for?

The suspension notice at Walleys was lifted yesterday. It lasted just 11 days and the stink goes on. My reaction 👇

I live in #NewcastleUnderLyme, it still stinks! Not sure if it's Walleys Quarry landfill, or the stench of corruption that's permeating the evening air 💩

Right thing to do? We are long past the authorities doing the right thing. This is bare minimum stuff now. More than enough evidence to date for abatement and closure notices but no one has the balls.

EA are completely toothless and massively under resourced. I know this as a Walleys landfill stop the stink campaigner. Also worth noting that conservative government have reduced EA funding by about 50% I think since 2010. Will find a link 🔗

And it's still getting a 1,000 complaints a week from a demoralised population. If people weren't so sceptical about the EA, those numbers would be in the tens of thousands

The Environment Agency has undertaken "significantly more regulatory activity" and allocated more resources to Walleys Quarry compared to any other permitted site, the officer responsible for regulation at the notorious landfill has said. endsreport.com/article/18642…

I’m sure Red Industries will have their top people looking into it… They will be working to compliance in some parallel universe #stopthestink

Seems odd that @RedIndustries2 would be delivering topsoil or clay as per the suspension. In a wagon usually carrying waste. #StopTheStink

Not resolved-The temporary suspension has resolved nothing, over a third of the time last week it was above the odour threshold. 990 toxic odour incident/ complaints this week.This is long term exposure, after 4 years it’s worse than ever, please do not take us for fools

The landfill is out of control, family & friends crying on the phone because they are so sick with it, their kids are sick with it. This is far beyond a public emergency. This is a mass poisoning. @EnvAgency get down to #WalleysQuarry NOW

Oh the irony
We're working to make sure waste crime does not pay. #WasteCrimeWednesday highlights how we shut down waste criminals and the consequences they face when we take them to court. If you run a waste business, operate legally or you could be next. gov.uk/guidance/waste-enviro…

I'd settle for clean air instead of the life expectancy reducing toxic landfill gas cocktail we are forced to breathe every day, that makes us so ill. #stopthestink #WalleysQuarry
