LETTERS – We need more dog poo bins

Good idea about fining people who don’t pick up after their dogs, but as you will see from the attached photo they need somewhere to put it!
I sent these photos to the council but alas no reply.
This bin is near the cemetery on Edinburgh Walk in Holbeach and not only is it overflowing but people put black rubbish bags there as well.
Children use this route for school as do other people.
It’s disgusting. Poo on your shoe is not nice and food cartons encourage vermin.
There are two double bins down Park Road near UAH and also two dog bins. So I’m asking can we have a double bin down Edinburgh Walk please?
