Jump To Comment: 1What's there position on Bin Tax?
I can't see how any environmentalist can support parties that favour the bin tax. The bin tax will harm the environment as it will see wast collection and disposal being put into the hands of dodgy gangster privateers and will give an incentive for illegal dumping.
A true environmentalist would support a publically owned waste collection service that would provide for full recycling facilities. Also a a true environmentalists would favour the real polluters to be punished, tax should be levied on the packaging companies, super markets, and big business NOT the ordinary householder who produces a miniscule amount of waste.
