Council officers in Lancashire have been assigned to snoop in residents’ back gardens, looking at how many wheelie bins they have, and taking away any ‘unauthorised’ refuse containers.
Officers were seen propping ladders against garden fences to peer into residents’ gardens. Do you think this is going too far? Share your thoughts.
Come in my garden see what you get, you'd be treated as a burgler.
Another waste of money by the council, I know what lets bugger everything up by bring back the weekly fire in the garden, anytime after 6 in the evening, that will sort the rubbish problem out! What will we need bin men for?
Why? the f**k would anybody want to search bins?? Surely if its for the sake of recycling, Yet it all goes in the same place?? Couldnt this be done at the "Landfill" which is council run, "RATS"..Our Goverment is full of them, Our council is full of them, Our country is finished,,,and going throuugh bins is the last resort...So anybody wiff anything to hide, should just burn it...coz who knows "You Rubbish is another persons treasure"..x
NO THEY SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED...GOD HELP THE POOR SOD IF THEY DID EMPLOY SOMEonE TO DO IT.STINKING BINS ETC.CHRIST THEY SHOULD BE TELLING THE DUSTMEN TO PUT OUR BINS BACK WHERE THEY FOUND THEM.IE DRIVEWAY ETC,HALF OF THEM EMPTY THE BINS AND CHUCK THEM BACK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE PAVEMENT.THEY DIDNT FIND THEM THERE DID THEY.HOME OWNERS PUT THEM OUT OF PEOPLES WAY,THEN THE BINMEN JUST LEAVE THEM ANY OLD HOW.SORRY GOING OF THE POINT HERE...FEEL FREE TO SEARCH THROUGH MINE..LOTS OF DIRTY NAPPIES IM AFRAID.
No,Not really. Its like Infading our Privacy, yes i no its Rubish in a bin, but its our Bins,. Dear me, Next we wont beable to go to the toilet without them counting how many times we have Flushed it. This country is getting Ridiculas. Total Nonsense.
Who would want to search a stinking bin anyway. The bins belong to the rate payers, that's where they get the money from in the first place.
Bins were not left on the pavements at 6 - 7 in the morning but were collected in proper way from the garden every week and if you wanted extra boxes and things taken away No Problem. What do we pay our Council tax for anyway !!!! They treat us as stupid .
It's because of European Directive No ******* that is causing the trouble of ground tipping Mr Brown did not give us a Referendum so we are stuck with it. What a mess.

Should council workers be snooping in our gardens?
