Record amount of cash confiscated from waste company...

£ 1 000 000

That's more like it. Don't know enough about the case to know whether it's enough, but it's got to sting.

And that's before they've been fined. Shame the courts can't demand that the illegal waste is removed and replaced with the friends and family of the accused.

That's less than a £1 per tonne. Hope they're fined the going rate per tonne for hazardous waste disposal.

They couldn't pay it. Millions of tonnes at £100's a tonne for hazardous waste? It would break them.
