[Brighton] What's your solution to Brighton's litter problem?

[Stephen Seagull]

I'm being 100% honest when I say pay to recycle.

Eg.
£0.05 per can
£0.15 per (wine sized) bottle
£0.10 per 100gr plastic

Amounts to be determined, but surely this would reduce the problem by a huge amount. Even if it were the less fortunate collecting discarded refuse from parks, beaches etc.

Why would this be a bad idea? I see it as a countrywide scheme

You can bring up politics if it is relevant AND aligns with the views of the mods and the Tory right wing bias of the board (hence the racists are still allowed on here).

Get your facts right, the bias of the board is left wing

Do you purposely try and get yourself banned from threads and the board ? Or do you just get some sexual gratification from acting like a prick ?

 

[Billy the Fish]

It's too simplistic just to call everyone a selfish idiot.

Anytime there's a big event on the beach it ends up covered in litter. Existing bins in between the piers aren't enough, they need to add some big temporary skips at the bottom of west street and have stewards and signs to educate people how to use them.

Obviously banning outsiders is another solution and I'm sure many on here would love to do it, but it's not viable.

Never mind all that, I'm not interested in seeing a political argument on this thread.
As a young person, what is your solution to the litter problem?

Stop all take aways and eating in public spaces, only eat in options allowed. Make the refuse tips accessible to all so no fly tipping. Close all macdonalds, KFC, burger Kings. More police on the street on the spot fines. Who the feck knows the British public are scum tbh.

Not read the whole thread, living in London I’m sure the answer in more bins on the street, Oxford/Regents St there is a bin outside every other shop and people use them as they are handy.

That shopping centre in Pompey harbour also. Spotless bins available everywhere.

 

[Mackenzie]

When I go for a walk along the beach I take a bag with me and fill it up with other folks rubbish, I shouldn’t have to do it but I figured that it enough people did the same it might make a difference.

After seeing the state of Southends beaches on Friday morning I think Kronos had the right idea .

Less packaging would be a start. Huge fines too.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

More bins, more visibly sited, more frequently emptied. Anybody still litters? Fine them within an inch of their chavvy lives

I already mentioned it. Don't litter. It is quite simple.

Sorry I missed that, but I'm sure you hadn't posted on this thread until these 2 posts.

 

[Westdene Seagull]

LOL! It really is not. Just look at what happens and get said on here.

So despite every single political poll in the history of NSC showing a very slight left leaning you know better ?

 

[Westdene Seagull]

This. It drives me mad how much plastic normal supermarkets use - very basic examples - do apples REALLY have to come in bags ? If I buy 4 cans of beans why can't the till work out the multibuy discount rather than me having to pickup the four cans wrapped in plastic to get the discount ?

 

[Westdene Seagull]

It's called not admitting it. Also, please keep personal attacks out of this.

Then stop constantly bringing politics into every thread you post in and accusing the mods of biased. Then, and only then, will I stop the personal attacks on you.

 

[BN9 BHA]

The reason for the litter is

Lazy selfish b******* not clearing up after themselves and thinking someone else will do it.

You're welcome

 

[BN9 BHA]

Yes, and they are that way because? Or do you seriously think people are born that way?

Yes, after meeting many people in my lifetime I honestly think some people are born with a selfish streak and plenty are born lazy.

 

[BN9 BHA]

That is just ignorant and borderline offensive. Not to mention wrong.

No it isn't, it's an opinion.
The only ignorant person I can see on this thread is you.

Borderline offensive
Who am I offending, people that drop litter? F*** off

 

[BN9 BHA]

Ok, well what scientific factual evidence do you have that some people are born lazy and selfish? You think they are genetically inferior? Or is it easier to convince yourself this is the case than it is to look at the actual problems and solve them?
I wager the latter, after all it is the lazy and selfish response.

You're not worth arguing with

I blame Thatcher.....
