Can I prosecute the council for not returning my bins to the place where I left them? i.e. not in the middle of my fooking drive entrance
Have to get out of my car most weeks to move them to one side. I must remember to turn off my engine whilst doing so, however, to prevent Derbyshire being threatened by global warming ![Lol1](images/smilies/lol1.gif)

not being funny but i pay my council tax for my bins emptying and dont expect it to be done by myself.
do the council not have to prove he was negligent by over filling his bin? if the guys says he rycles all he can but the bin still isnt big enough then isnt the bin not fit for purpose?
there are 4 of us in my house and our bin only takes 3 full bin bags, we recycle all beer cans, tin cans, carboard, glass, paper and plastic, all in to separate containers but still its full and i watched them the other day and the glass is put in the same container as the tins?????? so why am i separating them.

Probably because it's all part of a government scam, as is most things these days, they all probably end up at the same landfill site regardless of which bin you put what in, I know a local council near me were recently caught tipping the recycling trucks at a landfill. It's just so people can be fooled into thinking the government/council are doing their bit lol

While they are empowered to fine if people aren't filling their bin correctly, they aren't recycling/using the correct bin, and this becomes widespread, it is yet another measure which will lose the faith of the masses, as it will be seen as yet another revenue earner.

Apparently cucumbers are wrapped in plastic because they last longer and so less overall waste. Aren't I clever

On the subject of **** (well we are talking about a council here) I remember going to a footy match where they had police on horseback for crowd control
One of the horses decided it was time to release an **** kebab all over the public path, it was a huge pile of **** about 2 meters long (Horse looked chuffed though) However my mate decided to take the matter up with the ***** on the back of it, convo went something like this....
Mate: hope your gonna clean that up?
cyst on the horses back: No!
Mate: if my dog shat on the path you'd fine me 50 quid!
cyst on the horses back: yes that is correct.
Mate: so it's ok to let a horse do a giant ****e over a path but illegal for a dog to do a wee one on a path?
cyst on the horses back: Yes the horse is on police duty and exempt from fouling charges!
Mate: that's ridiculous, I want that **** cleaned up!
cyst on the horses back: One more word from you and I'll have you arrested for breach of the peace!
Don't get me wrong I hate plebians who let their dogs **** in the street and leave it, but the police should be setting an example, if they take horses into town centres, there is gonna be ****, they could atleast have **** shovellers there to deal with it!

That is actually a very valid point. Before I go on, like you I disagree with people allowing their dogs to poop all over the place and not clean it up.
We often have people riding around on horse and carts here, not all the time, but you do see them. Their horses crap all over the road, but it seems nothing is done about it, I doubt anything is, yet dog doo doo, that's a different matter. I wonder why that is.

Because horsesh!t is mainly reconsituted grass, and pretty much harmless, dogsh!t contains alsorts of nasties, mainly thanks to the processed Pedigree crap that they get fed

With regard to the packaging, I have started removing un-necessary packaging at the shop and leaving it on the counter, especially at supermarkets. Letting them know that it is unacceptable is the only way things will get changed![Mad](images/smilies/mad.gif)
Swampster, waste food is one of the many things we are banned from putting in our green bin![Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)](images/smilies/rolleyes.gif)
We don't bother with ours anyway, all our green waste goes into our own composter for the benefit of our garden
In fact we'll probably have some fcukwitted jobsworth visiting soon to tell us we're being fined for not recycling enough![Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)](images/smilies/rolleyes.gif)
Luckily I know a guy with a pig farm

Horsesh!t is a hazzardous waste, believe it or not. Check with the EA ![Smile](images/smilies/smile.gif)
I think this is a disgrace. Councils have the brass neck to keep increasing Council Tax, ours went up 4%, and still look for any excuse to squeeze a bit more. What the hell are we paying the Councils for. Taking the rubbish is in with the charge, however much there is. They should not be allowed to dictate in this way.![Mad](images/smilies/mad.gif)
Our Council is absolutely garbage (excuse the pun) our recycle bin has not been emptied now for 4 weeks. It's overflowing with bottles

As Skyline says-he has got a criminal record now for God's sake. What is the matter with these plonkers in charge these days!
Its a good idea as CrispDuck says, to put the wasted food in to a compost bin too.

I refer to the Cumbrian council who has just find Mr. Gareth Corkhill, 26, of Whitehaven, for having a wheelie bin that was overfull.
I understand that this man now has a criminal record, this could influence maybe a job application, his credit, and a host other things. What on earth has gone wrong with councils, and the people we as rate payers, pay to make decisions. I feel the person responsible for this decision should be sacked and replaced with a monkey, that way someone will be able to make a sensible decision. I heard a spokesman for his local council, describing the fact his bin was open by 4inches as dangerous. Come to Birmingham, with the local strikes we have rubbish that has not been collected lining the pavements. Could this mean we a have facility to be able to prosecute our local councils for putting our lives at risk.

No Bob - it appears to be a one-way street...
