MEP Boylan said: "We want to make our voices heard and send a message to the government that enough is enough.

"Sinn Féin is standing with families against the bin charge hikes.

"Those with medical conditions and disabilities, large families and low-income households will bear the brunt of the government’s decision to allow private operators to charge whatever they want for an essential service. We won’t stand for this."
