Is there more to this story than meets the eye?
I'd read it was a bag 2ft high stuffed to the gills and in a building related bag. Perhaps a used materials bag? It says in the article a commercial waste bag - whats that?
It appears to be over the top. However, why wouldn't a roofer have a licence? Surely they would need to remove some rubbish from site at some point? Even if its just a couple of tiles or some 2x4, they need a licence.
I doubt every roofer needs a license.
All those that work on sites and move where the work is won’t as all waste will go into on site skips.
even your couple of tiles or bits of 2 by 4 could be claimed as materials not waste
This is the Daily Mail so I wouldn't even give it the time of day. Just an exercise in sensationalism I would imagine and far from the actual truth. Awful paper.
Which paper would you prefer - it's in lots!
You're right, it is. My immediate reaction was about the Mail given it's such a nasty rag. However there must be more to it than the headline - perhaps it was the 'professional waste' bag but I don't know what that is! Also surprising he didn't have a licence as you say.
Love it........even though the item was in other papers, the Mail still gets a double bashing!!
However you look at it it's ridiculous. You dont need a waste carrier licence to carry the rubbish from your lunch! It's obviously not commercial waste and the poor bloke has been treated really badly.
I only have a lower tier licence so would also have been fined by these idiots for having my litter in the van rather than chucking it out the window.
It's easy to fabricate a photo after the event.
I can't believe that the bag in the photo is full just with lunch waste (how many leave a week's worth in their van?).
If you carry waste then get a license. It's chepaer than the fine!
i have seen vans that the pasangers footwell is overflowing with tins,plastic wrappers from ther tea brake ect they only seem to muck it out when they canot get in or need a pasanger
