birmingham, uk - British government calls in army experts to tackle waste crisis in Birmingham after garbage collectors' strike, facing opposition criticism.

UK Government Seeks Military Support

The British government has enlisted military experts to address a waste crisis in Birmingham, one of the UK's largest cities. Soldiers will provide logistical support without directly collecting trash.

Opposition Criticism

  • Former Defense Minister Grant Shapps criticized the move, stating the military should be reserved for real emergencies, not to assist politicians.
  • Shapps blamed Labour for mismanaging Birmingham's city council.

Trash collectors in Birmingham have been on strike since March 11, protesting against wage cuts. The city now faces significant waste accumulation, estimated at 17,000 tons, leading to a rise in rat populations. Rats pose health risks, potentially spreading diseases like Leptospirosis.
