Why blur out?
That's been blown out of all proportion.
I think I lost 3 fingers watching that 😎
😂 the old battery trick …. never fails……
You forgot to blame climate change
Wow! Not something you would expect to happen when on your round!! I am guessing they will trace the bin to a location, address and so on, and will "make further enquiries"!
Putin did it.
Maybe someone threw a cow in the bin and it farted😂. Climate change hey what can you do?😅
might it been stammers pager ..or as megadeno says,,it`s all to do with climate change…
ISRAELI PAGER
Recycling lithium batteries
Was the truck an EV truck?
A Hezbollah terrorist trying to get into the country and his pager went off.
Heard someone disposed of their pressure cooker while still pressure inside
Zelenzky,
Well, Barnet is famously where the July 7th terrorists got their ammonia. It was on Finchley high street. horrible place.
Parcel was for downing street……….
Maybe some journalism skills would be better off investigating how the UK government is stealth funding Israel through Israeli owned UK defence companies?
Brexit, surely.
Lithium battery got crunched.
Talk about blowing your lid.
Mossad – remove dual citizenship. That community is more loyal to Israel than Britain 🇬🇧
Hope nothing happened to the rubbish man! Poor guy!
Check the resident from where this came from. Who knows it might be a terrorist’s residence
