Include GLASS in your DRS ...but Wales can and England will when they get theirs up and running ,,next year?
The Westminster government are quite frankly acting like nutters ,trying to control devolved decisions already passed by the Scottish government
.Including glass would take @ 54 million bottles and jars off the streets ..you know like we did for a long time here take it back and get a small payment .
Apparently the whole union act or whatever its called is being dragged out AGAIN to suit them .All they'll do is get backs up and make us more determined to get away from them
Why is Westminster full of complete assholes?
It didn't stop Thatcher imposing the poll tax on us so why should it stop the safe disposal of GLASS.cLOWNS!!

I must say when we lived in an East Coast City, we had to take our glass to a depository a few miles away and sort it into colours until ....the collection van was caught tipping all the sorted into the same lorry.

Yes, I remember taking it to the recycling bins at a local supermarket and it all had to be separated by colour!

Could you please explain what the heck this is about?

It might be clearer if it was in Gaelic😄
