Bottle deposit scheme i

Because the referendum and its wording are being supported and pushed by the 3 government parties. I got a leaflet in the door but I'm none the wiser about why I should vote yes. And considering I am continously burned by this government by things that impact me, like the minimum unit alcohol prices, the recycling scheme, lack of investment in soccer infrastructure, nah I'm checked out on them and want someone else to have a go and until that time I will push in the different direction they want me to go in.

I.e a couple who are not married with kids, are they a family.   Second one is around carers.  The current status quo highlights the important role of women in the caring for their family.  This will change it to all people within the family not just women.   It would be awful shame if the first one especially does not pass just because of an anti gov vote.  It will be ordinary men and women who will lose out and kids, not the politicians by a no vote to that one especially.  The second one is more debatable. I like Tom Clonan and he is voting no for his reasons and there is logic I to it as it’s far from perfect.  But it’s better that the current position.

Have a bit more of a system at home now where the bottles/cans have their own basket in the utility room. The only issue is now is the smell from the empty beer cans.

The only issue is now is the smell from the empty beer cans.  Little small hack is wrapping a bit of cling film over the top of the cans and that works.  A bit of extra hassle though and extra use of plastic. Was a lot easier when they could just go straight into the green bin the next day.  Just wash out the bottles and cans easy really .
