Dog pooh was not liable to a fine a few years ago either !

Actually, not sure about the grate thing ? I usually carry a portable ash tray, would I be fined for dropping down a grate do you think, as do do this ?
Probably this old lady was the highest profile character they could find who would make the headlines?
I agree with prevoius postings that the take away's should be targeted and if a piece of wrapping carrying the name of such as Burger King or Mc Donalds found in the street constituted a litter offence and a fine for every piece found carried a fine.....that would earn more money for the council than a mere fag end.

I do mean a fine for the company and not the individual.

I would hazzard a guess that more of this litter is dumped on the streets in one week that fag ends in one year.
