Many years ago when l was a kid. You would go along the street, you would always local shops sweeping outside there shops. That's what l did, when l started working some 40 years ago.

Now we have these stupid Enforcement Job worthy officers giving out tickets for stupid things

This poor guy was fined for sweeping pavement, outside his store. And yet the council said 'because he made contact with the cigarette butts, he was breaking the law.

Grow up Councils
