Village Tour - My Thanks to All Who Came Out to Talk
The Village Tour 2012, or '60 in 30,' is now over, and I want to thank everyone who came out to speak to me at the 60 mobile surgeries across 60 villages in September's 30 days. The fact that so many residents talked to me to share their views on the important matters for our communities was very much appreciated, as was the welcome I received. A variety of weather conditions were experienced, and I am particularly grateful to those who braved wet and windy evenings or sweltering afternoons (we had both of these extremes, and plenty in between!) in the cause of taking the opportunity to talk to me directly while I was in the neighbourhood.

Speaking to the BBC he said he wanted to go back to a system of "weekly refuge (sic) collections". He also stated that: "We don't want to see people in landfill". However the money is unlikely to exceed the costs of Landfill Tax and the Landfill Allowances Trading Scheme which the EU and the government have been using to encourage councils to increase recycling.
