I Investigated the City That Refused to Collect It's Bins

In Birmingham there have been Bin Strikes in partnership with Unite Trade Union since January.

The residents of Birmingham are seeing their garbage pile up on the streets, while Refuse Workers (garbage collectors) are saying that they have lost as much as £8,000 a year.

But what if this story about the strikes goes so much deeper....

My mission was to investigate exactly that.
