To the Editor
The idea of having wheelie bins emptied every other week is just
another New Labour service cut dressed up as a green measure. All over
our City rubbish is removed infrequently because of unthinking
residents who either fail to put their bins out or who think it is
more convenient to dump waste in alleyways or on open ground. Any cut
in the regularity of bin collection would only make this more of a
problem.
We need more and better opportunities to recycle and a muscular
programme of enforcement leading to high profile prosecutions of those
who dump. What we really do not need is some farcical cuts in rubbish
collection that only highlight what con artists and dealers in
doublespeak can be found in the Labour Party
Labour must be having a big push on trying to fool the public since we
had a tax hike on modest incomes disguised as a cut from the
Chancellor and now from local Labour a proposal to reduce cleanliness
as a service improvement. I doubt many people will be fooled as many
can already interpret New Labour guff as the cover for lies and
failure.
Yours sincerely,
