Channel 4 News has uncovered that the King’s private estate tried to sell land contaminated with toxic illegal waste in Wigan to the local council. In January, Channel 4 News revealed the 25,000-ton site, dubbed UK’s “most dangerous illegal waste dump”, was on land largely owned by the Duchy of Lancaster - the King’s extensive private portfolio of properties and estates. When approached by the programme the Duchy of Lancaster said it had offered to transfer the land to the council last year - however, correspondence obtained via a Freedom of Information request reveals it actually tried to sell the site at full market price. Wigan Council told Channel 4 News it “respectfully declined” the Duchy’s offer. The Duchy told us today "We continue to work with Wigan Council to try and find an effective resolution to the illegal waste site."

🚨NEWS: Sewage spills still choking UK waters.. New Environment Agency data shows a drop in storm overflow spills in 2025. But don’t be fooled. This isn’t real progress. it’s the result of one of the driest years on record. Less rain = fewer spills. It’s that simple. Water companies are still failing to fix broken treatment plants, stop leaks and continue to cash in while rivers, coasts and wetlands pay the price - and regulators are failing to act. With the Water Reform Bill on the horizon, this is a once-in-a-generation chance to fix a broken system. We need real investment, real accountability, and public money spent on clean water, NOT lining investor pockets. Read more: bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cwyj… #EndSewagePollution #RescueOurRivers

🚨We need your help 🚨 please use your voice for foxes in this important consultation! This is the opportunity to lead to an outright ban on trail hunting - the smokescreen that is simply illegal fox hunting! This is where your voice will really counts 🦊
Trail hunting is set to be banned, delivering a key manifesto commitment. Today we open our public consultation on how to take the ban forward. The consultation will run until 18 June. Watch Baroness Hayman explain more about the consultation, and why it’s so important ⬇️

We are officially back on the ground. In a world divided by borders & conflict, our colleagues in Lebanon remind us of our shared humanity. Their magnificent work on the frontlines of this flyway - despite the surrounding turmoil - is an inspiration to us all. 🇱🇧 ✨

A man known for animal abuse with a spaniel bred for extreme features that’ll lead to health issues has won Best In Show in @Crufts. This is disgraceful, poor dogs. Please do better and stop popularising these breeds #Crufts2026 !

We’ve just seen a fox fleeing for its life with a load of hounds from the Cottesmore Hunt charging in the same direction and we’ve seen no attempts by the hunt to call them off. Blatant illegal fox hunting in front of our eyes. Help to stop fox hunting opsmokescreen.org

"This is illegal, you’re watching this happen...it’s illegally in pursuit of a fox" We’ve witnessed a hound from the Cottesmore Hunt following the scent of an exhausted fox. @NhantsHuntsabs are trying to call the hound off. Help to stop fox hunting opsmokescreen.org

The Cottesmore fox hunt attempted to shake us as they pretended to finish the hunt. But we are back following their cruel fox hunting activities LIVE. If they’ve got nothing to hide, why did they try and trick us? #OperationSmokeScreen @NhantsHuntsabs

One of the hunt follower’s horses has just had a serious incident. It seems these people just don’t care, whether it’s hounds, foxes or the horses they ride. Help to stop fox hunting opsmokescreen.org #OperationSmokeScreen

We just witnessed a Northants Hunt Saboteur having abuse hurled at her by hunt supporters, a commonplace occurrence during the Cottesmore hunt. Support the groups involved on the front line to stop fox hunting opsmokescreen.org @NhantsHuntsabs #OperationSmokeScreen

The @NhantsHuntsabs have shared shocking footage with us previously captured of a huntsman chasing a terrified fox with hounds and getting away with it. We’ve spotted this same individual out today. The law needs to change. Have your say opsmokescreen.org
