Re: New waste tax of £100

How do they propose to decide who is putting out to much waste?

I live on my own and usually when I put my bin out it's only half full, by the time the bin men arrive however my neighbours have used the room to dispose of their extra waste, I don't mind after all it's better in my bin than left on the street, but what happens if because of this practice the powers that be decide that I'm from a single household and therefore I should be fined for my neighbours rubbish?

What am I supposed to do, stand next to my bin until it's collected to ensure no other waste goes in?
Padlock the bin and get the binman to call for a key?
Photograph the level of my bin at the time I put it out?
Put a label with my name and address on the bin bags to prove which of the rubbish in the bin is mine and which has been dumped on me?
