Who do you turn to when you have local residents whom don’t seem to understand the idea of a recycle bin and dump any old crap into it?
Who do you turn to when you see rodents coming from that same crap which has been left by the council refuse men, because they are told not to take it, as it would contaminate the recycle lot?
You would think the council, wouldn’t you?
Well, sadly not.
I tried that little thought and got both the refuse department saying that they would investigate within 2 weeks and send someone round to the residents who seem to not understand the concept of recycling. I also told environmental health as well about the rodents that had turned up because of the problem with the rubbish and they also informed me that within 2 weeks they would send someone round.
Funnily enough, nothing has happened, the rubbish is still pilling up, nothing has been actioned at all, and this is from a council that supposedly takes these issues seriously – Harrow
So if you live in the borough of Harrow, don’t expect your council to do anything for all the council tax money it takes off you. It seems that with the change in colour of the council from Red to Blue – Labour to Conservatives, we have on our hands a bunch of people more incompetent than the last bunch. Something I thought highly impossible, but happening way too much.
Do I hope anything will get done, fat chance!! Do I think complaining to the local councillors will fix it – again fat chance.
As long as it doesn’t happen on their doorstep, they are not bothered. Harrow has a big issue of litter and local policy regarding refuse is making it all the worse. If you want to see Harrow at it worse, visit the main centre in the evening and see the amount of litter on the street. Tell me that isn’t encouraging the rodents out……

Ha!
Sounds like any average American city!
Hi,
I know this is late in the day... but where did you get the D31`7 exam revision guide from?
Thanks.
Chris p,
This is where I got the booklet from.

Not sure with just a week to go, whether or not you would be able to get it that fast, but you could try. There is an email address on the site, which will allow you to communicate with them, and maybe there is some way to get it quicker.
