Dunno if it will be post-pay or pay as you go tbh, but a pay as you go system could prove a bit inconvenient if you have no credit and really need a number 2! Sorry but that made me laugh so much... You could by pass that one with a curry the night before  Pay as you Dump  Pomp It starts in London and then spreads. And London is where the money is so how are we supposed to cope?

Im goiong to resurect this subject by asking if anyone say Dom Jolys complainers the other day.
He followed one of these rubbish inspectors around for a day. The inspector monitored what people were putting in their bins nad had the power to levy fines on offenders. Yet in a year or so doing the job he had never fined a single person. Getting paid god knows how much to basically do nothing!!
But I will tell you the point that I knew the council were taking the piss out of us. It was the point at which the grey recycle bin was delivered.
There was the nice new shiny bin. And along with it came a booklet explaining what we could and couldnt recycle. It also came with a piece of paper with contact details for various council departments on it. And it all came bundled in a plastic bag THAT YOU WERENT ALLOWED TO PUT IN THE RECYCLE BIN!!!!!!!!!!!!
The irony hit me like, well, an iron!

Somewhat related to this topic, it was on the news the other day, they are talking about charging people for the amount of human waste they dispose of, everyone is getting a meter installed on their drain which can detect human waste and measures the amount you are doing...
Dunno if it will be post-pay or pay as you go tbh, but a pay as you go system could prove a bit inconvenient if you have no credit and really need a number 2! Matt - Doesn't this happen already? Your bill includes incoming water through the metre, then it assumes that a % of that goes out as waste and you are charged for that as well.
