Waste not want not leave it all over the place

Waste not want not leave it all over the place


The street outside my house is littered with full and overfull dustbins since last Wednesday, when the dustbin men refused to empty them because they were on strike. I have seen piles of rubbish dumped in the little park at the back of my house as people are forced to take action to clear away what they have paid council tax for. And, the Poles next door simply take their rubbish and dump it beside the B&B in the next street. And the other day, I noticed the burnt out remains of a wheelie bin on Beverley Road.

Therefore, I don't think changing the law to deny householders the right to have their rubbish collected by the council is a good move.

Haven't the police got anything better to do, when the council workers are refusing to pick up litter, than to tell a young girl to pick up a piece of litter?

Our council seem to follow those rules already!
