I think it will make more people re-use their bags, thus leading to a decline in their manufacture.

I presume they're talking about a Marks-and-Spencer style charge (5p a bag).

Do you think having to pay 5p a bag will really affect how many plastic bags that supermarkets will be giving out?

Paying 5p per plastic bag is nothing really, especially considering the price hikes on petrol, wine, spirits, beer and cigarettes...
