EASTER REFUSE COLLECTIONS

I refuse collections at any time, not jeest Easter- money grabbing tin in yer face merchants can so@ off

So they wait until two days before our bins are due for collection to tell us that, oh actually yours won't be collected till the middle of the following week. What a useless bunch.

I think this is to make a stand with regards to the Single Status. As before it is the lowest paid who are getting hit the hardest.
A lot of people affected have been told to work to rule, not always easy but with feelings running high more disruption could be on the cards.
