Yes maybe abit random but I'm actually going through this right now.

Basically my toilet has decided it doesn't want to flush anymore for some reason, I've called my local council and they say it is NOT classed as an emergency because we can tip buckets of water down it to wash away the dirty water, and no one will come out to repair it until wednesday afternoon. We have 2 adults and a 3year old use this toilet and it's the only one we have, but that doesn't seem to matter to the council.

Personaly I'am disgusted with this, we pay rent for a home but when something in the home needs repairing they just put it off and you could be waiting anything form days to months to get it sorted out, but they always except rent to be paid on time, I don't really see the fairness in this at all.
My partener called then and told then he wouldn't be paying rent this week as he doesn't think they are doing their job.

So I'm wondering whats your opinions? Would you class a non flushing loo an emergency if you have/had a family? and if you were in this position how would you react??
