River of Waste

Even Enoch Powell didn't anticipate this

Drone footage has shown hundreds of tonnes of "revolting" illegal waste, fly-tipped in a field next to the River Cherwell near Kidlington in Oxfordshire.

The Sky News video shows the mass of rubbish, which is at least 60m long, 15m wide and stacked 10m high, and weighs hundreds of tonnes.

Whether this is just fly-tipping on an industrial scale as a result of the garbage strike in Birmingham, which is not that far away, who knows.

But the cost of clearing it up will be huge.

What would Enoch Powell have made of it?

He might well have said 'we seem to see the River Cherwell foaming with much garbage'.
