"NO End In Sight!" | Birmingham Council Under FIRE For Bin Strike As Tensions Worsen
Bin collection strikes in Birmingham are set to carry on after refuse workers rejected an offer from the council to halt the long-running dispute.
Rubbish has been piling up on the city’s streets and there have been warnings of a public health emergency as hundreds of workers have been on all-out strike for more than a month.
The Government has stepped in in an attempt to prompt an end to the deadlock and had urged the Unite union to accept the deal.
A small number of office-based military planners were called in by the Government to give logistical support to clean up the streets.
Birmingham City Council councillor Meirion Jenkins explains why workers of the bin strike cannot be replaced due to EU law, as strikes are set to worsen.
“Our government unfortunately never replaced the laws…”
“There is no end in sight!”
