        @BBCNews @SmoggieWolf surely he has more important things to be thinking about. *most* Trains have CET tanks now anyway. Stupid politician.

        UK still has plenty of train compartments which do not have bowls to store sewage. It falls on the track exactly like our trains. @BBCNews

        @BBCNews Useless minister should be slapping them with heavy fines - that will teach them. At best they are breaking environmental laws.
