I'd agree that it decreases the amount of litter you see, but more from the point of view that tramps/poor people go around collecting them because they can make a few quid. People will still chuck a can on the floor rather than carrying it around so they can get 10p back.Quote:

If it provides a useful income stream to homelesses and encourages them to clear up the streets, it's a massive win.Quote:

I live in Manchester, how is my plastic bottle going to end up in the Ocean?Quote:

Yes, you're a psycho. :-(
The council takes those things and dumps the contents in the sea, p. :-(Quote:

It's an all day beer, can pick up a 10 pack and start drinking at 12 with no fear of being inebriated by the evening. Clearly wouldn't drink it if I was out on a session.Quote:

Just a generic cooking lager that's handy when the glw is working a weekend and I'm on daddy day care duties.Quote:

Well done the homeless!
And I look like the sort of person who would do a good deed for vulnerable people in a desperate situation?Quote:
