Green Party leader Zack Polanski has told BBC Radio WM that he wants to see the details of any proposal to end Birmingham’s bin strike before committing to it.

Polanski questioned the timing of Birmingham City Council Labour leader John Cotton’s announcement on Monday that the ruling Labour group and Unite had agreed a deal to be put to union members for a vote.

Polanksi, during a round of BBC local radio interviews, said: “How cynical of this Labour council, they should have done this 10 months ago and do they really expect people to believe 10 days before a local election, they’ve just finally managed to make a deal?”

The council’s Labour leader John Cotton, who put forward the deal, said the potential deal is “good for the workforce” and claimed it represented good value for money.
