I agree with the zero tolerance £1000 fine thingy. Being a dog owner who does clean up after my dog (albeit unpleasant) I can't abide others not doing so. The council would probably argue that it would be too costly to employ people to police this system, but if they did it, the wages and dog poo bins, and litter bins for that matter would be paid for by the fines. The fines from the back of Maudsley st alone would keep the system going for a year... Honestly it's really bad up there...
