If you

Our local council have for as long as I can remember, allowed for three
free bulky waste collections per year. Recently they invited feedback on
a scheme where they would charge £20 per collection, as a means to save
money. I have replied with 'rather than save money, it will cost more
for the council to clear up the additional mess after all the fly tipping'.

Agree 100%, but you need to have a brain to see the logic in your argument.

When I finished uni the 4 that came bottom of the class (all received a
3rd, i.e. "we should have failed you, but did have the heart to after 4
years") went to work for the council... They are probably controlling
budgets of 10s of millions now...
