Where I live, in Glasgow, the ward contains a neighbourhood of tenement blocks and right next to it, a garden suburb with villas. The bin collections for the garden suburb are weekly, and they take rubbish, recycling, garden and food waste and glass in separate bins. In the tenements, they take rubbish every 8 days and recycling every 16 days, and empty the street bins every two weeks. So there's rubbish everywhere a lot of the time. The only reasonable conclusion is that the councillors don't expect an electoral negative impact for failing to fix the situation.
