    I wonder how much bin bag sales have gone up since this scheme started. I guess those figures will never be made available as it will reduce quoted enviromenmtal improvement figures. I know that most people I speak to moan about the loss of these free bin bags.
    Oh drinks in plastic bottles are taxed.
    Take away meals are mostly taxed (VAT reg buisnesses)
    Burger warp, foil and trays are taxed.

    but not a local sales tax to pay for the clean up.

    Which we’re paying more and more for fewer and fewer services, and here are people volunteering to pay more tax!

    Here’s a whacky wheeze, why not persecute the people that litter, rather than everyone that needs a carrier bag? The laws are already in place…
