🚨 BBC Morning Live’s Southall fly-tipping investigation continues - and this time, reporter Mobeen Azhar caught someone in the act.

During a nighttime stakeout in Southall, the BBC team filmed a man using a shopping trolley to dump cardboard boxes, crates and other waste at a street corner near a local shop.

When Mobeen approached, the man retreated into a nearby shop - King’s Express on the same street. Mobeen then spoke with a shopkeeper outside the store, who denied that the man worked there or that the trolley belonged to the business, saying the man was a stranger who had simply “borrowed” the trolley.

However, the BBC pointed out that the packaging dumped on the street - including boxes of apples and pears - matched the produce being sold inside King’s Express. Mobeen concluded the segment by noting how unlikely it would be that a stranger would borrow a shop’s trolley, fill it with the shop’s own waste, dump it nearby, and return the trolley to the store.

The shop has not been accused of any criminal offence and Ealing Council has not commented publicly on this specific case.

If you’ve seen fly-tipping in your area, report it at https://t.co/ZgE4YN8UQt. Photos and location details speed up enforcement. The council can issue fixed penalty notices of up to £400, and fly-tipping is a criminal offence carrying up to 5 years in prison for serious cases.

So after 16 years I am no longer a @EalingLabour councillor representing Hanwell Broadway.
It has been an honour to serve the residents of Hanwell and West Ealing.
After a gruelling campaign, I'll have a few days off then will be back supporting the community.

First meeting of the new Ealing Council is on Tuesday 26 May. There are 25 new councillors out of a total of 70. More than a third are new. That should make things interesting. https://t.co/en6yST1WUW

At 57%, Northfield has highest turnout in Ealing for local elections 2026. Both Hanwell wards were just above 49%. Turnout for the borough as a whole was 43.5%.

The PollCheck election projections have been updated now that all the candidates have declared. If they are right, it's bad news for the 3 parties currently on the council. 🧵

Health warning:

"PollCheck does not conduct its own polling. Projections are built from national polling data, local election history, and demographic modelling - not ward-level surveys."

@MarkEccleston1 They come with a health warning:

"PollCheck does not conduct its own polling. Projections are built from national polling data, local election history, and demographic modelling - not ward-level surveys."

[Hanwell Blogs @HanwellBlogs]

This is the only ward-level projection for the local elections we've found. @poll_checker shows Labour winning Ealing Council with a reduced majority - down from 59 seats to 48.
