A rubbish strike was set for the 5th of August but the unions first decided to postpone it, and now they have fully cancelled, it, so you can breath a sigh of relief.
A provincial court has rejected an appeal lodged by the Almuñécar cleaning company, Mirlo S.L., saving the Town Hall from a 1.5m payout.
With the strike being called off at 20.00h on Wednesday, the municipal, refuse-cleaning company worked flat out to clear up the accumulated mess.
Refuse-collection workers went on strike last night at 22.30h, after a workers’ meeting voted in favour of strike action in a secret ballot.
You will have noticed that the dustbin men (refuse collectors) didn’t go on strike yesterday. Instead, they’re postponing it until next Monday.
Do you remember August 2007 in Almuñécar? Here’s a clue; the streets were stacked with accumulating rubbish, left uncollect in the sweltering summer heat…
The streets of Madrid are covered in uncollected rubbish and its been this way for ten days.
