A "disgraceful" mountain of illegal waste stretching 150 metres long is finally being cleared from a site near the River Cherwell in Oxfordshire, officials have confirmed.

The colossal clean-up operation, costing £7.3 million, is expected to last around six months.

The trail of rubbish caused widespread outrage, led to a criminal investigation and the Environment Agency declaring the situation a critical incident last November.

And yet nobody knows who put it there? I don't care if they only get one company name - hammer them for the lot.
