People who are caught dropping and leaving litter behind in public in Wirral will be hit with an on-the-spot fine from new enforcement officers. Wirral Council have appointed Kingdom Ltd to provide environmental enforcement services in the borough giving them responsibility for enforcing legislation around litter left on streets and in parks and other open spaces. From the 1st July, a team of enforcement officers from Kingdom will be out and about targeting those anti-social people who don’t dispose of their litter in a responsible way. Anyone observed dropping and leaving litter will receive an immediate, on-the-spot penalty of £80. http://www.wirral.gov.uk/news/24-06-2015/spot-fines-litter-be-enforced

That doesn't surprise me. My daughter was find £80 in Maidstone this year, for putting a cigarette stump in the gutter.
She now knows better, without being told. Serves her right.

I hate litter bugs! I hate it when you`re on the motorway and somebody throws a load of rubbish out the window like McDonald's wrappers. Who do these people expect to pick it up? Would they like their mum, dad, son or daughter to litter pick on the motorway for the minimum wage?

Isn't this just another way of creating revenue ? Wouldn't it be a better deterrent and more effective punishment to give them a days compulsory work picking litter up ? If they had to pick up other people's crap they might think twice about dropping it.

They'll only need to park their arrises by Park Station and they will make a fortune. Disgusting considering it's the gateway station to Birkenhead Park and people visit it because of it's historical significance. The side avenues in PRN are used as car clean up facilities by commuters and shoppers who just throw their junk into the gutter before heading off to Upton, Claughton and other salubrious localities, leaving us with their shoit. It's a wind up. ![somad somad](/forums/images/graemlins/default/wiki_mad.gif)

Are these Litter Wardens easy to spot? I mean do they wear any sort of uniform?.
I have just been up to Liscard and the place is strewn with litter as usual, and I have never seen one of these Warden people since the rules came in. Or are they all assigned to Birkenhead?
