| One of the binmen sacked after being reported for standing on the back of a dustcart, said he was made a scapegoat by the council and claims the practice is still going on. |
| But pen-pushers in local authorities, teachers in failing schools and binmen on bonuses live an existence feather-bedded by the state. |
| The union Unison claim forcing binmen to operate only two to a dustcart is unsafe. |
| So little wonder she was miffed to find binmen left them behind with a note saying they were too heavy for three loaders and a driver to manage. |
| Members of the GMB and Unison also want more protection from Bradford Council for binmen and street cleaners who are suffering attacks as they work. |
| The city's 120 binmen withdrew their goodwill in May, which included not working two bank holidays, in protest at council plans to privatise the service. |
