Have you had any issues with having your bin emptied/your rubbish collected? Do you think it’s fair for bin workers to strike when it impacts a community in the way it’s currently impacting Birmingham?

00:00Not really, no. I think, you know, they, by and large, they do a good job. Yeah, we're lucky.

00:09I think the bin collection here, I think is pretty, I mean, from a student perspective, is pretty awful.

00:17I really don't think it's good. Like, I think the bins get taken every four weeks, the black one.

00:22But yeah, I think potentially. I'm not really, like, that well-versed on the topic.

00:31I think that's never actually really flew through my head, but I think it could definitely work, maybe.

00:38I think I can imagine making things a lot more easier, I don't know.

00:43We have a lot of rubbish, because obviously we're like a ten-person house.

00:47And, but we, we fit it out, but it doesn't always get taken.

00:51The food bin is, like, the, like, job they do is quite, like, sometimes it gets thrown on the floor,

00:56and, like, all of it's spilt out. It's the same in my house in Oxford as well.
