Birmingham City Council’s bin boss has urged union members to reconsider its “very, very fair offer” as residents report seeing “cat-sized rats” and a striking bin worker fears she could lose her home.

Hundreds of bin workers have been on an indefinite all-out strike since March 11, leaving tonnes of rubbish to build up in the streets, in protest against the council’s plans to cut the role of waste recycling collection officer (WRCO).

Birmingham Tory Councillor Richard Parking joins Talk’s Jeremy Kyle to discuss this further.

  1. Liebour should be outlawed for incompetence and corruption and the unions in the UK are aiding and abetting them.

    Since I was a child in the 70s I was aware that politics were dodgy. I'm nearly 60 and I truly hate these lefty morons.

  2. Their rep said the bin workers were only on £30000 the drivers just a little over £40000 plus great pensions and council benefits – where can I apply.

  3. No one clapped for the bin men through Covid and the people that kept the food factory’s running through Covid , some still are working from home, it’s terrible!!

  4. Birminghams replacement of dry stone walling, using black bin liners.
    Is there no council staff or Police in Birmingham?
    What about cctv camera's, or mobile hidden camera's, to fine all these fly tippers?
    If the fly tippers can go out off there area to dump there rubbish, surely they could drive to there recycling centre to do the same?
    What a horrible sight.

  5. Didyou all observe that the person taking rubbish out of the car and dumping it with prior prior deposits was a Muslim attired exactly like one of his ilk back in Pakistan.

  6. What team are you people on the MPs or workers as I certainly on the workers side as they only asking for a pay rise to be able to afford to go to work and pay bills as with what the government are offering it’s not worth going to work 👍
