Food waste basket delivered early this morning. Perhaps I should send it to Eric Pickles although by the look of him I'd guess he consumes anything edible that's placed anywhere within his grasping distance.
Even if we do go to fortnightly collections, we'd only put the odd bone in it from time to time. We hardly ever throw away food, all the vegetable matter goes to feed the huge colony of worms in our compost bin. Like Lovejoy, we certainly don't need a black bin collection every week or fortnight, although 4-6 weeks would be pushing it!
I see there's a poll on this at the other place. Not very scientific, but those who have voted are overwhelmingly in favour of fortnightly collections at present. Why on earth does Pickles think weekly collections should be a 'right'? More pathetic vote grabbing from the useless coalition. Cam n' Clegg's green pretensions are completely blown with this and the 80mph motorway speed limit. |
