I can not decide whether the headline “rubbish tip plan dumped” in Saturday’s Oxford Mail is good or bad news.

The county council has done a partial u-turn, by saying that residents will be able to use Redbridge at weekends and bank holidays when it reopens after closing for a nine-month refurbishment next year.

This has raised more questions than answers, however. The council did not say how much money it has wasted having spent months planning the closure to save money, and now back tracking on the idea.

Also it did not say how many hundreds of thousands of pounds will again be wasted on the refurbishment. The next question is, does anyone (elected or employed) by the county council know or even care what they are doing?

As for saving the tax payers’ money, that has to be the biggest joke since April Fools day.

Still, I suppose the council is good at recycling the same old rubbish.
