Peopleshould pick up and dispose of their litter, however I said I see litter that has blown out of bins and I have also seen litter dropped from the bin when the council has come to empty the bin, driving off and not picking the papers/whatever up.
I think if anyone is seen dropping litter, by all means have some authority telling them to pick it up, fining them £100,I am not sure about that one.
Unless there are plenty of bins available and duly emptied too.
You are fortunate to have so many bins where you are, I had some litter in my hand the other day and in a city centre I walked over 15 minutes before I found a bin, and then had to squash the papers in it as it was so full.
It isn't the same everywhere.
So unless the conditions are right and things in place, then I don't agree with fines just for fining sake
