More than 30,000 tons of contaminated steel scrap which made up the World Trade Centre have been dumped in south east Asia. The steel, containing asbestos, PCBs, mercury and dioxins, has been unloaded by workers in ports such as Chennai in India by workers with no protective clothing. Two US companies have made millions selling the scrap overseas.

On the theme of steel, I notice you havent mentioned the fact that Tony Blair, your Glorious Labour party leader, has been trying to wheedle concessions from Bush's 30% Import levy. I doubt he'll get any, I imagine Labour will make Britsh workers pay instaed and I further guess the Socialist Review will say nowt about owt.
Fools ! Fools !
