In April 2007 the Conservative/Lib Dem coalition cut funding for door-to-door recycling for 4000 homes on council estates. The rationale was saving money, but on the same day (April 16) a new, 'elite' service was rolled out in Hampstead.
Camden Labour called this a "postcode lottery" for recycling, and argued that recycling should be for all, not just the wealthy. See here.
