Investigate toxic waste fires burning on the Launders Lane landfill site
To find out what is buried in the ground and why it keeps igniting. Who is responsible for waste that has put there. Who owned and sold the site. who gave permission to keep using site for waste dumping. Did the local council or governing bodies know off any previous illegal dumping on the site.
I would like the government to open an inquiry in the hope that this environmental poisoning of the air the residents of Rainham are being forced to breath can stop. There are many complaints of local people experiencing breathing problems.
