IT is now two weeks since the bins in the Infirmary district of Blackburn have been emptied and this is causing a lot of concern and distress among people who live in the area.

Our chief concern is the disease that might follow caused by the neglect of the council who are responsible for the state of affairs.

I would like a promise that this mess will receive urgent attention and we will go back to a weekly service (when there was no problem).
