Quote ="wigan pie man"have seen the unemployment figures?
its not beyond the bounds of the council to employ TEMPS over winter, like shops do for christmas., then if the snow comes we have the man power.
but what about the means?
like a later poster says (im not quoting so i dont post twice) they DO stockpile grit and salt.
so why dont they stockpile it year in year out and let the pile get bigger for occasions like these?
its called forward thinking......sumat most local authorities have never heard of.
i would be happy for the council to employ extra men, spend extra on stockpiles, if it meant i could get off my estate to go shopping and that my bin got emptied.'"
And what would these temps do?
