Rachel Gilmour

Liberal Democrat — Tiverton and Minehead

Speaking in the House of Commons on 17 November 2025

Debate

Illegal Waste: Organised Crime

Contribution

It is not just my opinion that Tiverton and Minehead is the most beautiful constituency in the country. It contains Exmoor national park, the Brendon hills, the Blackdown hills and the Quantock hills, all of which are areas of outstanding natural beauty. These are criminals who effectively run corporations that decimate our countryside. Please can the Minister make sure that the fine meets the crime and that they are penalised in their pockets, where they deserve it most?
