Brent Council very unhygienic indeed.

When there is a Bank Holyday, I have noticed that the Council often leaves their bins full of rubbish for a fortnight.
Then the putrid smell of rotting food oozing from every-day domestic refuse spilling out off the Council-owned wheelie bins is already disgusting enough.
On top of that, flying in and out the Brent bins, are scores of flies and other nasty insects. They will often fly into the residents home to infect them.
Very unhygienic indeed.
I was under the impression that the Council has a duty about hygiene.

My husband and I, we certainly agreed that BRENT COUNCIL is outrageously unhygienic.
We have two children and our smaller one is sensible to infections.
Now we realise that part of her sensitivity may come from all these infectuous flies coming from the Council of Brent bins.
It may come from the bins that the Council has distributed to our home, and again it may come from the bins distributed to our neighbourgs. It does not matter much to us, we are at the receiving end. It is our child who is the one to suffer from the way they are imposing its residents to absorb all these viruses, - not them the invisible BRENT COUNCIL responsible staff. Or should we say the irresponsible Brent top brass?

It seems to us it's very unconsiderate from the Council.
There is very little we can do. The bins do not belong to us, but to the Council. It is marked on them. We can not really throw them away, can we?

At least with all the money they take away from the tax-payers, surely they could ensure that they do their job properly.
Whether it is the contractor or the council NOT doing what they are paid for, by the end of the day who is suffering from their actions or lake of it? - it is us the residents who are, - not the hidden council army of pen pushers.
Do they really care?
What are the names of those responsable?
