But they would be payed to do other jobs instead... clear up fly tippying, maintain government buildings, public services (Swimming pools) etc.

Saying your helping people is a scapegoat excuse... sometimes the litter is simply not cleared up.

Depends. If there is a bin within 10 meters of me I'll throw it in it, but if not I'll just make sure no police cars are around then just drop it on the floor. If I'm in a car I don't throw it out of the window (anymore) though, I just leave it until I get home and throw it in the bin.

My pockets are filled with more important things.

It's only usually the odd bottle/can anyway.

So you'll drop litter if nobody is there to see you?

hmmmm.....

then why not just keep it on you till you get to a bin?

lol we say that in Mcdonalds, they are payed for it afterall. I personally don't litter. I think it looks horrible when the streets are covered in it.

yeah i drop it when no one is around because when your walking down roads and stuff (closes and quiete roads), you never come across bins so i just drop it. I dont drop it infront of people because i dont want to look bad and have people look at me.
