Stop The Garden Tax
We the undersigned petition the council to ask Wirral cabinet to reject any proposal to charge, via a subscription, for the collection of garden waste and to maintain the current service as an inclusive service.
We believe such a move would have a negative impact on recycling rates and impose an unfair garden tax on people whose only crime is to own a garden
