/// More to the point - Do you believe in the the idea of waste recycling, AoG? If so, how do you think it should be done? ///
Yes I am all for recycling, but it isthe way that it is carried out that wants addressing.
We once had a large black bin, for general rubbish, a large brown bin for garden waste, food scraps and shredded paper, a smaller blue bin for tins, glass bottles and plastic, a bag for waste paper, a bag for cardboard, and a bag for old clothes, this was under our Tory Council.
Then Labour got into power on our council, and straight away they increased our Council Tax and then informed us that they were taking our Brown bin off us unless we paid a yearly payment of £40 for the privilege of keeping it, they then delivered a new large blue bin in which we are to put in paper, plastic, glass, cardboard, aerosols etc.so now we have just have two bins.
