    That whole comment amused the hell out of me because that’s what’s happening here. I live in South Tyneside and our bin men have been on strike since before Christmas. Nothing to do with the council running out of money, but down to one of the higher ups being a huge workplace bully and the council won’t kick him out.

    It’s gotten so bad that there are now several skips dotted all over South Tyneside where people are expected to turn up and dump their overflowing rubbish.

    The whole area is turning into one massive tip all because of one asshole the council refuse to do anything about.
