Today being Wednesday the 11th March 2009, here in Romsley we get the first green bin collection service that the council are charging us extra for.
After walking around the estate this morning, I counted just 43 orange stickers on green bins showing these people are willing to pay the extra tax for a service that was once included with our collection of refuse before the bin system was rolled out to us.
The residue of people in the village have signed my petition saying that they will not pay and these amount to hundreds shown in the picture taken.
It's assessed that at least £10,500 that the council expected to collect will not now be collected.
For we in Romsley will not pay or ever pay.
Stan Francis, Worcestershire County Council candidate for Clent Division
