MP splashes own cash on flytipping

The new Labour MP for Peterborough will use her own wage to combat flytipping in the area.

Fiona Onasanya will use more than Β£800 of her Westminster money to take away bulky items that get dumped, for free. The council currently charges for collection of bulky items and electrical goods.

She says the council need to take "more responsibility".

The council say there is no evidence to suggest that free collections reduce flytipping.
