McCormack fined for putting his rubbish out?
McCormack fined for putting his rubbish out?
Friday, 19th Jul 2013 07:55

Read the papers today and Leeds striker Ross McCormack supplements his income by loading old-sofas, washing-machines and bags of old plasterboard in the back of a rusty transit can and will dump it at a local beauty spot for a small consideration. However was it really like that?

Flytipping is an environmental menace, but what appears to have happened in McCormack's case is that he dumped a few extra bags of rubbish near some bins in a lay by on the A58. Unfortunately some of it blew down the road and the Leeds striker was traced from personal details he had left in the bags.

Clearly Ross needs to invest in a decent shredder and find out where his nearest tip is for future reference?

Thanks to the diligence of a local council official, McCormack's " laziness" in not being bothered to take his crap down the local "recycling centre" cost him £1000 in court yesterday, notwithstanding the stigma of being labelled a "fly-tipper".

For Leeds City Council Coun Mark Dobson, the council’s executive member for the environment, said: “Our recycling centres are open throughout the festive period to specifically allow people to recycle the extra waste that’s created at that time of year. In fact, our recycling centres only shut three days a year.

“While the items in this case may have been left by litter bins with the misdirected idea that they’d be picked up as litter, this is a simple case of flytipping. Litter bins are for litter, not household waste.

“We’re determined to stamp out this kind of lazy behaviour and we will take action against those who fail to help us keep Leeds clean and green."

Thank The Lord we have people like Coun Mark Dobson there to protect us from these evil people. I shall sleep easier tonight knowing this.

Meanwhile the appearance of a high profile defendant in court clearly rose one Huddersfield Town fan from his slumber, or his local jobcentre? The dog-botherer known as @MattyBermingham on twitter became involved in a furious exchange of words with McCormack on twitter after he attempted to take pictures of McCormack at court.

Cleanliness is too important and we have to see that who is littering and he or she must be fined. On the other hand, https://customessaysreviews.com/college-paper-org-review/ you can get some options that are there to give more plans.
