UK's mindless, hostile & aggressive local councils

Stoke-on-Trent couple fined ÂŁ1,200 after clearing up rubbish

Their road had been blighted with “disgusting” #litter for years.

But after Mr Pinter cleaned up some of the rubbish and left it out in a cardboard box by the full bins, the pair each received ÂŁ600 fines.

The city council said all fly-tippers would be punished with fixed penalty notices and considered the matter resolved.

Ms Mike, 41, said people would often dump waste around the bins on their street which she claimed would not get collected and would attract animals.

I’m actually afraid to walk past it in the street because I’ve seen a lot of #rats and what looks like stray cats

Mr Pinter, 46, collected the rubbish into the box, which had his name printed on it, on 29 April after seeing the litter blowing around.

He said the bins on the street were full so he had to leave the box next to them in the hope it would be collected.

Sperm Whale Asks Divers For Help Removing Trash Tangled In Its Mouth

Imagine that dental floss is attached to a bunch of old food and other stuff, wrapped around the bottom of your jaw, and you don’t have any arms. Are you imagining it? Well, you might have an inkling of how a sperm whale felt in the Indian Ocean.

The poor creature approached a group of divers, seemingly asking for help.

The whale swam directly up to them, mouth agape and dragging all sort of detritus. When the diver cautiously approached it, it left its mouth open and allowed her to pluck the tangled pile out, piece by piece.

#Tit for #Tat #Trash #Diplomacy #North #Korea #South #Korea

"North Korea and South Korea

So, South Korea decides to send big balloons across the border, filled with leaflets, drives with movies calling for rebellion, and other provocative type material.

North Korea considered this trash.

Tit for Tat, they send hundreds of big balloons filled with real trash across the border.

“About 600 more balloons carrying debris have flown from the DPRK to South Korea since the evening of 1 June, Yonhap reported."
