No surprise this. I've been working on a start up company which reuses plastic material labelled waste. My main issue isn't op costs, funding, technical. Its the linear economy practices of EU single market & regulations they put in place We need to leave to breath NoInnovation

They are sending to countries who are disposing of it any way they can...just paying to move the plastic literally around the world

If true it is disgraceful that we do this. 'Someone else's problem'.

Is this true, as I presumed that we used to export all of it to china until they stopped and now we have plastic waste mountains in the Uk, which is why councils are burning and burying it.

What? I don’t see the issue with sending it Scotland.

just get some in backpack and bring it back

Labour’s new RADICAL socialist plans for UK business: CUSTOMERS to vote on executive payTHE LABOUR Party have proposed a new law that would require big companies to give customers and other ‘stakeholders’ a right to vote on executive pay and bonuses to counter “immoral” practices. What absolute nonsense. 😡 Again another soundbite to try to win the popular vote. This will lead to a talent exodus, a brain drain and less qualified people in top jobs delivering appalling leadership..oh wait that's already happening with jeremycorbyn & UKLabour 😡 Not logical apart from financial institutions. Likely to loose the best executives in other scenarios. Shareholders approval is fine- RELATE TO THE PROSPERITY of the enterprize. Goods & services reflected in purchasing - quality v price. This isn’t Socialism it has veered too far to the left
