So the Tory led Government are saying we should reinstate weekly bin collections across the country. At the same time, our local Tories are scrapping weekly bin collections. Do they not speak to each other?

For the record, I wouldn't mind fortnightly collections providing the proposals were realistic and well consulted on. I don't think the proposals are effective enough, and certainly have not been consulted upon. Maybe the council should delay changes for six months until a consultation has taken place and national policy becomes clearer?
