| In order to get the Labour Council's plans for the recycling system debated properly at the next full council meeting on 13th December the Conservatives have launched a petition: "We support waste reduction and recycling; and believe it should be kept free and weekly. Therefore we demand that Ealing's Labour Council abandons its plans: • to impose an annual £40 garden waste tax and to collect garden waste fortnightly • to withdraw the white sacks for plastics recycling collection • for the option in the contract to collect waste and recyclables fortnightly We believe that these changes will increase fly tipping, reduce the rates of recycling and alienate the very people whose support is needed."
