Watch as a bag of rubbish is tipped by the roadside.
There's no question about what was being done or who was doing it.
Caught red-handed, the police were on the scene.......
....to issue a 'stern warning' FFS, a stern warning!
English law allows for a maximum fine of £50,000 for a fly tipping offence - and this clear-cut case qualifies for a warning.
How much do we think they regret doing it? They must have been laughing about it ever since.
I would have let them off (if it was a first offence) with half the maximum fine.
Punishment for them and a deterrent to others. Otherwise, what's the point of the police and law?
