QUOTE (regor @ Sep 1 2018, 07:03 AM) Yesterday, in bitterness and resentment I had to give the council £50 so my green bin will carry on being emptied. There seemed no other choice, Trekinng to the dump every time there was garden waste (hard work and inconvenient), using the black bin (it is often pretty full anyway) fly tipping (not nice) were considered and rejected.
The gentlemen and ladies of the ruling party may come to regret this new levy come next election time. I sincerely hope so! Doubt it; there’s plenty of Tory support in Newbs. £3 worth of builders sacks and an occasional trip to the tip is no hardship. I’d have happily paid £5 a month more, but I’m not doing £50 on the nose; it’s regressive. I’d rather be out of pocket.
