Well, at least they didn't get police to go round and knock on her door at 3am. ******************************************************************************** *************** http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/arti...in_page_id=1770 I dropped a morsel of my girl's sausage roll and the litter police fined me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 In my opinion, if it's biodegradable (apple cores, banana skins, etc) - it ain't litter. Especially when its scarfed up by pigeons in seconds. This is the kind of stupidity we do not need - no matter what country you live in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is just an edict from above to make as much money from this new source of ready income. Certainly this case would be thrown out of court, especially as the media have hold of it, not to mention there is no evidence. I do agree with the litter policing as UK streets are filthy and disgusting, for generations it has never been an issue that has been addressed, where as other countries like Germany have been conditioned and taught that litter is crime and sociably unacceptable, combined with a wonderful and regular street cleaning, most places in Germany look immaculate and spotless. people DILIBERATLY discarding any kind of food wrappers, newspapers, cigarettes, chewing gum, bags and just about anything else no matter how small SHOULD be fined, but certainly picking on soft targets like a mother and child who simply drop a bit of food is bad. I seem to remember another similar case where someone pulled something out of their pocket and a tissue fell out un noticed within seconds they were pounced on and fined.
