The Council say that they have been unable to empty green waste bins and collect recycling in parts of the Clifton and Rawcliffe area today. They hope to empty the green bins tomorrow (Saturday)
They have also failed to collect recycling from 10 roads in Rawcliffe. However they now plan to collect them on Monday. How residents are supposed to know this remains a mystery.
The local media continue to pretend that everything is OK.
No point in ringing up the Councils help line (01904 551551) . It is closed until Monday.
Even then you will only have a 50% chance of getting through – see our story tomorrow for the background to the Council communications meltdown.
Waste not collected (according to Council web site)

Hopes that Council Leader James Alexander will step in to address the bins crisis have been dashed. His involvement here was photographed only a few weeks before the last local Council elections
