It’s economic madness that nothing is really being done to stop aluminium being sent to China and the Far East, when it should be coming right here and to other UK recycling facilities.
Criticizing the export of aluminium for recycling.

It’s becoming very clear to me that a great many of our councils are being misled and, in some cases, royally ripped off when it comes to the money available from recycling their aluminium.
I realised that the governments of the past 15 years had very little idea what was happening to all the UK’s scrap aluminium.
For far too long profit driven scrap merchants have sold our aluminium abroad without any consideration for the national interest.
It’s insane that councils all over the country are losing valuable income from this. They need to take better control over what’s happening to their scrap aluminium.
