Stack has left a mess behind
I’m so glad someone is reporting the mismanagement of the postOperation Stack clear-up .
Last week, I saw two grab-lift trucks ‘clearing away’ the mess... except they weren’t.
While lifting collected heaps and piles of rubbish, they were spreading as much up the verges and into ditches bordering farmland.
And of course the loose, already wind-spread bags, bottles and detritus had been left where it lay on both the coastbound and London-bound carriageway. It’s a mess.
Why, I ask, didn’t they put wheelie bins next to the generously distributed “oneevery-kilometre” portaloos to assist the truckers dispose of rubbish and urine bottles etc?
They’ve had long enough to prepare for the situation.
What a cock-up and a very clear indication to the taxpayer that its funds are being wasted yet again.
