HOW angry I am to see we are getting yet another Council Tax increase.

Bromsgrove District Council has introduced the best advert for burglars I have ever seen with its kerbside bin collection.

Not only is it obvious that no-one's home but the council have asked us to label bins to let the burglars know exactly which house to try.

I have no objection to recycling - in fact as someone with no car I was unable to recycle before and I am very pleased to be able to contribute. But why can they not collect from the outside of my garden as before?

Did I miss the information sent out warning people, when recycling paper, to make sure no personal details are available to would be fraudsters?

With the recent television advertising of identity theft, it made me think how much easier it is now our paperwork is kept clean and dry for them to read clearly.

Is this the sort of service they expect us to pay more for?

If it is then think again council, with elections coming up - think again.
