Enough already

Oh, maybe more scummy fraudsters can crawl out of the woodwork then!

Lots of false bamer claims will arise, mostly bogus like all the fraud cases linked to this tragedy

Cancer causing chemicals everywhere

The Westway 'found' nearby, full of cars, vans and trucks, producing cancer causing chemicals.

As if those poor residents haven’t already suffered enough

Nice!

Get ready for the claims....
