IN REPLY to Naomi Angove (Letters, November 18), while the new twin bin system has inevitably taken some getting used to, the fact that thousands of tonnes of rubbish are now being composted instead of landfilled is something to celebrate.

It is a real shame that Labour are so anti-recycling, when climate change is the biggest problem facing the planet. I suppose they are hoping the scheme goes wrong in order to score cheap points.
