im not trying to defend the council here
part "offenses" or not its absolutely ridiculous that they even bothered to take this to court at the expense of the tax-payers
Also, there was a woman who threw an apple core out of her car window, and she got done for ~£160 for "disposing of categorized waste in an area not licensed for categorized waste" or something along those lines.
Not to mention this "10p tax rate" they're trying to get rid of..oh yeah and replace it with a 20p tax rate...
my mum's pay increase of £24 a month, and out of that she only gets £4 because of the change with the tax rates...
So much for the "labour" government.
