The culture as it is in the UK today needs very serious thought and consideration......If you put a bin out for collection and some 'Noddy' decides I'ts too full....you have got a problem.
If someone of the 'Yobo' culture sets fire to it...you have got a problem.
If you want to discard some household furniture which is no longer wanted...Again you have a problem.
Why not take a leaf out of Spains book.....The government do if they are trying to convince you that taxation on a particullar item is justified.
Spanish youngsters do not go out of their way to create havoc in the communities that they live in.
In the cities there is unrest and that is the same in all cities in the world.
I live in a one block of six that are separated with a garden and swimming pool....which are very well looked after and used by all the inhabitants of these blocks.
There is a separate disposal area for rubbish....six large bins for general rubbish.....two large bins for plastic....two for paper and cardboard and one for glass.
Any discarded furniture can be placed behind the general rubbish bins and if the 'Pickies' as we call them, dont get to them first...they are removed.
The general rubbish bins are emptied every night...summer or winter.
The other containers are removed when full at the request of the building administrators.
There are 1500 people living in this Urbanisation.....How many streets and houses is that?
