How infuriating. We need a REVOLUTION NOW!!!
you can understand if she was a mindless yob throwing rubbish down cos she can`t be bothered putting it in the bin, but a woman with a toddler, I used to push my daughter around and know how hard it is,and how much hassle it is getting on and off buses why don`t the two council idiots try and ticket a hoodie with a pit bull (probably shitting the street up) and charge them, cos they would get black eye and no fine money and cost them hundreds placing and forcing another asbo.
wouldn`t a bird or animal eat the crisp anyway.
just a scam to collect money.

i could bet you a 10er that if it was a group of people toghether it would of been turned a blind eye too. just because that puts them on the spot, its easy to say nothing in that situation when people are with people they know.
it would be good if the woman went to court and never paid the fine and even risked sitting in jail, which type of judge would put someone in jail for her kid dropping to crisps?.
I think the fine was dropped somebody seen sense or bad PR!!!!
I don`t think theres any bins at bus stops?

Thats a fabulous point, and a very much needed attitude in this country. The Awakening can't happen fast enough if you ask me.

it wants people to accept picking up there dog poo and behing like robots, "hey there misses you have dropped a crisp" "AAAHH shit ill be getting jail for this, pick it up pronto" lmao.
nah though it does need people to make a stand you dont need to run away or hit the police peson (youd get fined less for assault lol) what you need is to say well ok ill sit in jail for this, i am not paying this injustice of a fine. and then the state will have to put you in prison which will cost it money to feed you ect.

Crisps are pretty bio-degradable anyway, how can they justify charging that much for something with causes absolutely no economic harm whatsoever?
These litter wardens will become even more unpopular than traffic wardens I rekcon. Quite why anybody would want to choose such a soul-destroying, inhumane and miserable career path is totally beyond me.

I would hope that would be the case , peter19. The problem is, that is exactly what the "powers" that be want. The idea is to get as many people as possible into prisons which have been privatised. These prisons are self funding due to the fact that they represent a captive workforce.This serves two purposes at least. They train you to obey authority, and they compete with outside businesses for contracts therefore driving down wages. Cheap labour for all. No need to depend on China!.

I hope the woman tells them to get fucked, and doesn't pay them shit! No jury in the world would convict someone on such an outrageous charge! :)

That is retarded. Your government is wasting tax dollars to pay these retards to fine people for dropping chips? Wow, that's fucked up.
Thats not the worst of it...in some places they got some monkey sitting there watching you on camera walking down the street, and if you drop a cigarette butt they shout at you to pick it up, and if you dont, they effing arrest you!!!!! So I hear. Maybe a dirty protest is in order...if I shit on the pavement and run, one of them might slip on it.

I heard somewhere that a cab driver has been arrested for throwing a cig butt out of his window, and there's talk of banning smoking whilst you drive.
Are they going to ban car stereo's incase people dare to change channels or cd's? Probably.
