I am not making excuses for people who #FlyTip…it’s a terrible blight on our communities.
But less bin collections and making it harder to access local #refuse and #recycling centres surely plays a big part in all this?
I strongly suspect the desire to keep council taxes low for political gain, while privatising refuse services who offer less and less year on year is how we ended up in the awful mess.
Four American law firms have bent the knee to Fascism and Trump. They are doing his bidding to unravel American democracy and DEI.

The classic movie, #Ghandi, reminded me that we win when we stand together. It doesn't require acts of violence against the side that has an army. It takes Unity, Resistance, Refusal to comply with unjust orders, and refusal to contribute to their economic objectives, no matter the consequences.
Divide and Conquer has fresh meaning when we see how division weakens us. 100,000 British couldn't stand up to millions of Indians. UNITY is powerful.

“We are converting so much of the matter on this planet into things we care about for only a few minutes to a few years, but their mark will last forever.”
Nick Heer ruminating on Gabbott and Zalasiewicz’s book “Discarded” (which sounds like a must read and the #vpl has on order 
).
#refuse : to deny, as a request, demand, invitation, or command

"You let me walk away in peace, or I'll bite your head off," growled the tiger.
"You get back in that cage, or I'll light this gunpowder--and then it's toodles for both of us," the trainer threatened, brandishing a lighter. A circle of gunpowder surrounded both the tiger and the trainer, and it ended at a keg of the stuff.
Golden eyes and bloodshot blue ones glared at each other, tiger and man caught in a stalemate of offers you can't #refuse.
Drawn to a ruckus, Ernie peeked around the corner. Elbow deep in trash Gary rummaged around for something.
Ernie coughed, startling Gary. "Why are going through that refuse?"
Gary squinted, "You going British on me?"
"No," He facepalmed. "I woulda said 'rubbish' if I was."
With a squelch, Gary resumed his search. "Lost my retainer. Wanna help?"
Ernie couldn't #refuse his pal though he wished he did.
When Gary dug it out, he popped it in without washing it off making Ernie sick.

![The black and white photograph depicts a group of people, possibly demonstrators or protesters, on what appears to be an urban street. They are walking across a wet pavement with visible puddles reflecting the light, indicating recent rain. The individuals in the foreground wear heavy coats suitable for cold weather, suggesting it may have been taken during winter months.
Among them is someone dressed as a police officer; his uniform and cap distinguish him from others who do not exhibit any official attire or badges of rank. Some pedestrians carry bags, hinting at their daily routines being disrupted by this gathering.
The environment around the group includes buildings with signage that reads "Hotel" on one side, indicating commercial establishments are nearby. A barrier fence separates parts of a street, and there's debris scattered across it which could be indicative of recent activity or protest-related messiness. The cloudy sky adds to the somber mood conveyed by the photograph.
The caption provided suggests this image is part of an archive related to anti-Springbok tour demonstrations in the Netherlands during apartheid era opposition against South Africa hosting a rugby team, known as Springboks. These were significant events for international solidarity with African liberation movements and the broader struggle against apartheid worldwide.
