    >”But trying to say that has to be done in a particular way just will not work given the complexities of different areas,” she said.

    Am I being dumb, I can’t think of any complexities.

    It’s rubbish collection. You put it out, they take it away.

  2. I have to agree with the comments in the article: “*In a place like mine, where the majority of people don’t live in the towns, why should we be running 26-tonne diesel vehicles all over the countryside to pick up Mrs Miggins’s jam jar, or a bit of peeling from her potatoes?*”

    Different areas have different needs.
