You have to either laugh or cry, because if you don't the only other option os to go on a murderous rampage at your local councillors office.

The guy gets a criminal record for that rubbish, pardon the pun.

Britain should consider to censor such stories and keep them secret, because sooner or later stories like this must start to hurt the tourist industry for sure?!

I wonder if they really have defeated mad cow disease some years ago - or if it just mutated!?

Funny you should mention that. In most international reports of BSE/VCJD the focus is on britain alone; no-one alludes to the fact that france, germany and many other european countries had it too in some number or other, and all as a result of agricultural industry attempts across europe to make more money by re-cycling animal carcasses into feed for animals who's natural diet as herbivores does not include spinal cord nor vertebrae. I mean... what were they thinking?!

As for the tourist industry, I wouldn't worry. We have so many people taking advantage of EU laws on employment and immigration by coming to the UK to work to earn money only to return home when the wind changes direction, that those more optimistic politicians consider it a kind of 'economic tourism'

Good to see the British judicial system concentrating on the important stuff like this.

It is the thin edge of the wedge. If this criminal was allowed to get away with overfilling his trash bin by four inches, what would be next?

He would probably improperly mulch his peonies.

It is a documented short step between overfilling trash bins and international terrorism. We can all rest easier knowing that threats to our society like this criminal are being death with.

It is a little known fact (Some guy told me about seeing it on the internets) that Adolph Hitler once improperly wrapped up some garbage back in '19. If only he has been caught and properly dealt with, perhaps WW-II could have been averted.

I think we need to carefully surveil Mr. Corkhill (if thats his real name)
