Did she just not actually go out and take the measurements, but charged mileage anyway, and then made up the figures? Was it just laziness rather than conspiracy?

Or was it down to the pressure of work? And who was her line-manager? No doubt when this goes to the Crown Court – all will be revealed.

And here’s the man who exposed Waverley’s air quality scandal.

And here’s the Farnham Herald Reporter who broke the scandal.

A major study has found that air pollution significantly raises the risk of death in babies during their first year. A project tracking eight million infants born in England and Wales found that exposure to chemicals in the air drove up the risk by up to 50%.

Babies are more at risk because their prams and buggies are closer to the ground and therefore, closer to exhaust emissions. So we ask ‘Your Waverley’ how does walking children to school help?
