“I took a moment to drop in on an event for charities involved in supporting the victims of mesothelioma – cancer linked to exposure to asbestos. This topic is very personal to me because I lost my own dear father, aged 69, to mesothelioma”- John Glen MP salisburyjournal.co.uk/yoursay/249017…

Today the APPG on Occupational Safety & Health launches an important report. Covered here in The Times and The Sunday Times: we call on government to ban Altrad UK, Ireland & Nordics from public contracts until it makes right its inherited asbestos legacy.
