  I must say I'm encouraged by this mutiny. Never in my wildest dream did I think that deluded ideas to save the planet, sorry introduce biodiversity and enable ordinary folk to do the right thing by recycling for Mother earth, would come face to face with the might of more sensible folk who are tired of being told how to run their lives in the smallest detail.
  I thought I was being a little odd, a curmudgeon, for feeling unhappy about this state of affairs but how wrong I was.
  What people may not know that this whole idea comes from brussels under the guise of what is officially called the renewable obligations certificate or ROC.
  It's complicated but simple at the same time. Basically if we don't recycle and not do what we've done for generations with our rubbish then we get fined. So it's in the financial interest of councils up and down the country to erm, "encourage" us all to recycle. But this is recycling on a totally different level. It's totally bizarre. Alot of what actually gets recycled ends up in developing countries polluting their backyard rather than ours. Children are used to dismantle computers and other electronic gadgets and suffer from the heavy metals and other dangerous chemicals they ingest while that do that job for a pittance.
  I suspect this whole operation will fail over the next few months.
