This has been going on for some time. These firms pay the councils to go out on the streets and extort money from people dropping cigarette buts and waste paper.
They say they are from the council but they are not, they take all the money collected except for what they pay the council.
My pals used to stand on a corner which is private property and when these goons came around they started littering. The dipsticks in black used to try to grief them but the owner of the corner plot who didn't like whats was going on came out of his shop and cursed these prats to high heaven and if they answered back he got the police onto them.
Wow! That is citizens looking after citizens!
What right have councils to do this? this is not what they were elected to do
This is bullshit! Hats off to the citizen helping out others.
