This country becoming more a dump every damn day... literally AND figuratively.
I completely agree, but I can also understand the problems that lead to fly tipping. Recently set up a kitchen company and can not believe how hard it is to dispose of rubbish, old doors, cardboard and plastic. I would never fly tip, but it can cost £150 to dispose of a load. It all gets added to the customers invoice but that can make us uncompetitive against the cowboys who wull fly tip.I'd never really noticed how much litter was left by the road side until I started cycling around during the lock down. I live in a rural area and the amount of discarded cans, bottles, masks, McDonalds's wrappers etc is truly shocking. What is worse though, is Fly tipping. people dumping anything from bags of clothes to Fridge freezers. It's truly shocking and a reflection of the f*** it attitude that exists in this country.
I'm always told I'll have a heart attack when I start ranting over stuff like this. Just the other day I pulled into B&Q and encountered the "island of McDonalds" rubbish which had clearly just been dumped from both driver and passenger side windows.Just a sign of the times
No fecker gives a feck...about anything.
From littering camp sites to throwing rubbish out of car windows. My local tesco is near a KFC and you just see whole meal bags sat in a car parking space. Basically people sit and eat them in tesco car park and open the door and drop litter and drive off. Scruffy c*nts
Bins everywhere. They have to walk 5-10 meters at worst. Also don't get me started on folk who abbandon trollies in the middle of the car park when the trolly 'park' is 5ft away.
I genuinely think its lazyness or just 'some one else will sort it' attitude. I've watched groups in McDonald's etc have meals and just walk off leaving the table and area around them like a bomb site. Just clear after yourself....its basic manners.
That and people not picking up dog sh*t to double parking (taking up two spaces). It just seems the norm these days.
I'm probably just old and stuck in my ways. Manners and a bit of thought for other people isn't rocket science
Burger King, too.The last time I was out litter picking, a car slowed around me on the lane, drove on, then stopped when they realised what I was doing... and dropped a load of rubbish out the window, clearly presuming I'd just pick it up. Grown man, at least 60.
The KFC one drives me mad, as does McDonald's. I think that Drive Thru food should have your numberplate printed on it, then if you drop it you get refused service on your next visit. The ANPR technology exists to do that.
Put the fishing rod away.You just know that these litterbugs all voted for Brexit.
Selfish then, selfish now.

Thr trouble with laws and rules is if nobody is there to enforce them they are useless.
ie dog fouling,speeding,throwing rubbish etc. The police are not able to cope and haven't been able to for some time
