And they say the education system hasn't been dumbed down. If the current crop of useless governmental policy makers are anything to go by, I think the case is proven.

First they pretend that alternate bin collections are supposed to promote recycling, but even though people saw through it, they still insist it's not just a cost cutting exercise.

Now they are using this years silly soundbite for all crap policies to claim that chipping bins will 'reduce the carbon footprint' and 'combat climate change'. (Will it add synergy to the refuse collection process as well?)

No, it will just waste money by putting a worthless chip into a bin so they can charge people more for rubbish they haven't put it the bin.

Until these brainless muppets answer the question 'why should we be charged for disposing of other peoples rubbish' (which I notice has been asked many times without an answer) this scheme is going nowhere.

Or at least it shouldn't. More likely it will just add itself to the ever growing list of moronically dumb ideas that government generates, gets a hail of criticism for, answers none of the questions and keeps progressing to completion regardless.

I think I've got the concept of open government now. It's where they openly mislead people about their policies and never listen to what's being said.
