| Comment | It's all about saving money. It's always about saving money when it comes to GCC.
If they wanted to encourage recycling then they should be giving everyone an extra blue bin, stop putting limits on what can be recycled (can't recycle yoghurt pots, plastic straws etc) and keep the green bins to be emptied every 2 weeks.
They don't seem to think of people with big families either.
Also, doesn't make sense for them to make green bins every three weeks. There's already a rat problem in the city. 1.3 million rats and counting. The fourth highest rat population in the UK. Bin men have been getting attacked by them too.
I've seen dead rats lying about some areas in Maryhill too.
Considering people are now at home more due to covid and lockdowns, working from home etc... there will be more waste than normal.
Nothing GCC are doing makes any sense. The only thing that makes sense is that they want to save money. It's understandable that there are bin men having to self isolate, but there are contractors they can hire. And we know they've got the money to do it - they've put council tax UP.
Taking more council tax off people but cutting services.
GCC are a corrupt bunch. The people at the top don't care about environmental health, they don't care about the public or even their own workers.
I've got a feeling things will only get worse over the next year. |
