CAN the council tell us how much it cost to have the recycled aluminium cans sent to Warrington, steel cans to Port Talbot, glass to south Yorkshire, textiles to Devizes, garden waste to Brinkworth, paper to London and sorted the good quality paper sent to Scandinavia. Plastic bottles to Preston sorted and some sent to China. Can they give the cost of transport and what about the pollution.

Movie Magic
The Mummy: Tomb Of The Dragon Emperor (12A) - 5/10
Stephen Sommers, writer-director of The Mummy and The Mummy Returns, and leading lady Rachel Weisz sensibly bailed on this dull third chapter of the globetrotting adventure series.
The X-Files: I Want To Believe (15) - 6/10

The Dark Knight (12A) - 8/10
