Norwich's recycling...Antony, you are totally right. Norwich's recycling record is doing next to nothing, and is nationally poor as well as being bottom in Norfolk.<br /><br />In a way we cannot really blame City Labour too much, other than they should have got straight away onto Waste Strategy over the summer, having their own policy/strategy under Brian Morrey, rather than taking little action until 2007 and relying on Party Consensus to more slowly forward, which is double edged for action.<br /><br />Who is largely to blame. It has to be the Couzins LibDem administration, who for 4 years did not get the total bin infrastructure in place, even though signing a words/little action Zero Wastre charter in June 2002; whilst making multi million pound financial committments everywhere to Car Parks, Theatres, Memorial Gardens, Norwich Market, A guilt edge inflexible City Care contract, pedestrianisations, but just simply not enough on basic universal services. Not everyone is a Culture Vulture like Hereward Cooke!<br /><br />Now Waste Recycling in Norwich is having to be "Fastracked" from 2007, whilstt very welcome with the Cash planned, £2.25m over 2 years, should have committed 2-3 years ago by the LibDems instead of a few other mentioned schemes. LibDems are ok folk, but useful administrators and even worse handling the City' Cash. No wonder they took such a druming from voters in LibDem wards who decided the Recycling service was rubbish and protested voting Green in May.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
