Bin Tax Campaign going too far

dublin | bin tax / household tax / water tax | news report

Report this post to the editors

The concensus builders supporting illegal dumping?

There are reports this morning of various incidences of Illegal dumping on green areas around dublin by those actively engaged in the anti bin tax campaign. (or the SWP's anti service charge campaign)

What did the environment ever do to you? A
newstalk 106 reporter detailed a particular site that included waste including Newspapers aluminium cans, glass bottles a microwave and a fridge. These should all be recycled!

I used to think that the protest was fair enough, privatisation is bad, double taxation is bad, But when people are given responsibility for themselves they go and piss over themselves, destroying their local environment in order to get a reaction from a leviathan. it's just stupid. You're not going to build public support this way. if you had organised a community waste collection service yourselves and acted respnsibly then the public would have no choice but to respect you.
