Rubbish collection: Tories say different things to different people

Compare and contrast:

Caroline Spelman … the Shadow Local Government Secretary questioned the wisdom of moving towards more fortnightly bin collections (from the Conservative Party website)

with

Fortnightly collections ‘boost recycling’
LGA chairman [Conservative] Lord Bruce-Lockhart said: “The move by some to alternate weekly bin collections is aimed at working with residents to reduce waste, increase recycling and slowing rising costs” (from Yahoo news reports on an LGA report)

That wouldn’t by any chance be one senior Conservative saying one thing in one place, and another senior Conservative saying the opposite somewhere else would it?
