How is the council going to police the increasing amount of burning of wood?

Ken Kercheval...Cliff Barnes of Dallas....

BBC iPlayer and look for Money for Nothing...it's a programme about a woman who picks up stuff from people at the waste tip and she takes it around to experts to upcycle....it should give you some inspiration if nothing else....

Now she has roped in Nicola Sturgeon..... The Beeb are still saying Brexit deadlock...if I remember correctly the majority voted Leave in 2016...deadlock- what deadlock?

Yes- it was the first science experiment I was set. We were given a small glass bottle with a screw top to take home and told to put milk in it and shake it...it works!

Shutting the stable door after the horse has bolted comes to mind- AFTER the council has granted planning permission for all the ugly carbuncles splattered over the Victorian houses in ED....shameful and obscene

It's not some sort of retaliation for your not clearing up after your dog is it? A cat once deposited in the middle of my front doormat and then someone stole the mat....

Birmingham (UK) has overtaken London in the stabbing stakes....

Some secondary LA schools charged ?20 per pupil at the start of the year in the late 1990s and early 2000s.

My area must have been very poor because we cuold put a tennis 'net' (bit of rope really) across the street and play well into the 1960s.

This is a direct result of the council imposing a charge on collecting the above items. Those of us that have a house with a side entrance can collect this stuff in the garden until we have 10 items and then arrange collection. If you are in a flat and do not have transportation- what else are you supposed to do with the ONE item of household furniture you want to dispose of? Maybe we should have a facility for people to get together and when they have collected 10 items- one of them arranges a collection. I'm surprised that the furniture etc dumping is not a lot worse. As for the dog poo- I've lived around here since 1980 and there has ALWAYS been a problem.

Anyone who knows ANYTHING about local government knows that if the Tories are in Central Government then the Labour Councils will cut FRONT LINE services and make life VERY uncomfortable for the general public...but they will NEVER cut the admin and backroom staff- EVER.....it is obscene the way that Labour councils, especially in poor areas, make life VERY uncomfortable for the people and then blame central government...that is how they get their votes- as far as I can see, having been brought up in a very poor borough, all that Labour ever do is cr*p on the working class and since they failed to educate anyone, brainwash them into thinking it is the Tories' fault...they even sink so low as to leaflet schools- they are worse than the clergy.....

The only freedom here is the freedom of the terrorist to kill and maim

Anna Soubry- Born in Lincolnshire, MP for Broxtowe an area that voted LEAVE- the woman has lost touch with her roots and constituents...good riddance Still, having been a barrister AND a journalist- double whammy in the libturd stakes

Madness Your comment is full of contradictions- I was commenting generally on various peoples' attitudes to having a car....but as usual rh you have to get personal- must be all that lead that was in the petrol when you were growing up!

My first official Saturday job with NI number was in a Green Shield Stamp shop....it was utter chaos...much like Argos used to be

I have just counted 10 taxis with ads and no current licence in the stretch of Crystal Palace Road between the Great Exhibition and Goodrich Road.2 of them are just down side streets off CPRd. At least three of them have been there since before Xmas.

Hopefully tonight we will see the February Super Snow Moon.... https://www.standard.co.uk/news/uk/super-snow-moon-february-2019-uk-a4069811.html

Have you been invited to this on 19th March? A chance to have your say. I wonder who is footing the bill? http://www.cvent.com/events/access-all-areas-exhibition/event-summary-9df6731bbf964fe5b07d6a831bde4b99.aspx?intcmp=57621
