		<description>Might it be possible for those more informed than I, to look for serious ways of marketing our rubbish.

If certain items of rubbish had a market value, and I am just about old enough to remember returning "pop bottles" in exchange for a bag of chips, then this could partially offset the need for increased taxation, and the cost of investment in new recycling methods/infrastructure.

If households could seperate that which has a market value, then this was weighed on collection, it would seem perfectly fair to decrease/offset my "Rubbish Tax" by </description>

		<description>The new religion of climate change is constantly being pushed by all politicians and most of the media especially Browns Broadcasting Corporation and Sky. Many people despite the green fascists constantly shouting, still question the case put.
Why don't local authorities burn the waste in clean burning furnaces to generate power to heat public buildings such as town halls and hospitals. As a nation we are already overtaxed and can't afford to pay more and more as politicians think up new ways to rip us off. Mr Cameron is no more a true Conservative than I am the Queen of Sheba, please John don't let him destroy our party I know he doesn't allow his views to be questioned ( Just like Blair) but if Conservative MPs don't stand up to him we shall never have a Conservative government. Mr Cameron is driving us traditional Conservatives to the BNP as we have no party to vote for. Labour and the Cameron Party are so close there is no choice and no choice means no democracy.</description>

		<description>I read that a fine for putting a crisp packet in a bin designed for bottles can be higher than a fine for shoplifting. I currently have three bins. A black bin for rubbish, a green bin for green stuff anda purple bin for bottles. Three bins for the same amount of rubbish. It certainly must cost to have all those extra bins made for every house in town. On the subject of bins for green stuff, the government has overlooked a biological fact. Plastic bins make privets and bushes sweat releasing sap, flies like nothing better than to lay their eggs in sap. Any bin that is not completely closed will be a breeding ground for flies between the months of may to september. This creates a health problem, with so many bins in such close proximity in urban areas.</description>
