Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4Wexford Town are at it as well now. Ohh yaa. Some Fianna Fail TD/Councillor was on the radio a while givin out about it - saying it would distract investment and cost jobs which the town needed. I severely doubt it.
Sell out by the looks of it.

Fingal Manager welcomes union statement
Earlier, Fingal County Manager Willie Soffe welcomed a recent statement made by IMPACT trade union and in particular, their recognition that jobs and services are 'effectively dependent on the domestic charges regime'.
The local branch of IMPACT also condemned the actions of individuals, including elected representatives. The branch has called for an apology for remarks made about Council staff by
one of the leaders of the Anti-Bin Tax Campaign.
According to Mr Soffe, the support of the union has been crucial in implementing the waste charges, which are a requirement of EU and Irish law.
You lot may wan't to live in a pig sty, but why should I?
I've paid the tax, and I want my bins emptied, so push of you shower of self seeking publicists and bullies.
We aren't the council is. We want everybodys bins collected and are more the willing to allow a truck in that does this. The council don't want to collect everyones bins so take it up with them. If we win and the charge is abolished then you will benefit as well despite sitting on your hands while others fought for you.
