MY rates in 1987 were £250 a year for a three-bedroom detached home.

Now I pay £2,500 for a two-bedroom bungalow.

No street sweep or lights and potholed roads.

Limited bin collections and visits to skip and trailer permits.

We also have gridlocked traffic in Hereford.

OTHER NEWS:

 

There are no local police or manned stations.

I’m not sure what we pay for?

Can I stop paying rates and sort my own waste?

Private firms would probably pay me for it, as proper waste recycling can actually make money.
