Fed up with tiny red council rubbish bins

Brian from Flagstaff

My household has been pushed to get all our rubbish into one small red bin while the recycling one is rarely more than half full. Whatever posessed the council to use such a small size? We now hear we will be "invited" to buy bigger ones. (Disgusted council lands us with another stealth tax BTW.) Whats wrong with the recycling bin becoming the rubbish one and the small red one becoming recycling??
