TRAGEDY ON THE M5

Last Friday night - November 4th - I was in the packed centre of Bridgwater attending the Carnival procession and preparing to take part in the squibbing. But, as I waited in town and chatted to some police officers, news came through of that horrendous road accident on the M5: the pile-up, the fireball and the death toll that mounted.

Those of us in the midst of Bridgwater were powerless to help. We could only watch the sad tale unfold and marvel at the speed with which the emergency services dealt with the incident. Every one of the officers, firefighters and ambulance personnel deserve our praise and thanks. They worked tirelessly and cheerfully in difficult conditions to contain an emergency the like of which has not been known for decades.  I am so sad that one of my constituents, Malcolm Beacham from Woolavington, lost his life in the crash.  There will now be a detailed inquiry to try and establish the causes of the accident, as the Transport Secretary told the House of Commons on Monday.
