There are claims one Liverpool street is dealing with a vermin problem after a video emerged showing a large rat climbing over a wheelie bin.
The video, filmed earlier this month, showed a large rat on top of a purple wheelie bin on Chapel Gardens in Everton. Now Kevin Robinson-Hale, who is standing as a Green Party candidate in next year's local government elections, has claimed there is a particular issue with rats in the area.
Mr Robinson-Hale said, who lives in the Everton area, said: " The rat situation in the Everton area is now a major issue. I have heard several horror stories from residents over recent weeks. One man said he saw a group of up to 15 rats running around his neighbour's garden."
