Green Party councillor Jillian Creasy objects on the grounds of the environmental impact from the increase in HGV traffic, and strangely said this in a statement on the Sheffield and Rotherham Green Party web site
"I am not opposed in principle to importing waste to make up the shortfall in waste arising in Sheffield"
Surely the problem is we're producing too much waste, there is no "shortfall in waste" in Sheffield.
