More proof that it is a slow news week from the Express today:
BARMY new waste collection rules mean that councils across Britain are now refusing to empty bins altogether – unless the lid is shut.
One in three local authorities has ordered collectors not to touch any open bin, even if the lid is only slightly lifted.
It is the latest “ridiculous” edict to hit householders already fuming about fortnightly collections and confusing advice about recycling.
What amuses me about this article is the word "now" in the strapline. They must have had this story on file for a very long time, ready for a slow day. Our council has been refusing to take away open wheely bins for at least ten years.
