    This is a very big pet hate of mine, in part because I live near a school and will have to spend 2 hours or so cleaning other peoples rubbish off my front garden.

    I have had someone drop they garden rubbish, finished fast food bags and bits of doors dropped in my front garden plus all the rubbish that gets dropped by the kids on the way home :evil:

    Have come out of my door to find a woman dropping her finished drink in a bag left by someone else and was almost unhappy when told to take it home :roll:

    Heard about this on the radio earlier in the week 'Love Lewisham' campaign run by the council.. Sounds great.. could do with a few more local authorities doing the same

    I really hate it too, I've spent a few days clearing other peoples rubbish out the gateway to our fields. All we get is a notice form the council to say it needs clearing up. Most of it isn't domestic waste, it's light construction. We've managed to deposit it at the council tidy tip a few miles away.

    I've noticed over the last few days neat stacks of tyres by the side of the road round here. :evil:

    All the scrotes on "community service" could be made to do some litter picking.
    Might give em a sense of public reponsibility, but I doubt it...

    Huge companies like Mc's, M+S et al should be made to produce biodegradeable wrapping, which deteriorates over time. Or have to employ the scrotes, or even the longterm unemployed - "Can't work/Won't work" - brigade, on minimum wage.

    Give em some superhoovers, as we don't want them bending down doing their poor, delicate backy's in!

    If the Con's decide to bring back hanging for litter dropping/fly tipping, they'll get MY vote!!!
