Throw away Britain

[STEED]

Stop buying those throwaway clothes, shoppers are told by Lords
Shoppers must learn to 'make do and mend' rather than buy cheap throwaway clothes, a damning Lords report will say today.
Peers on the Science and Technology Committee called for a return to post-war thriftiness with an attack on 'fast fashion'.
They criticised the rising popularity of High Street clothes which are so inexpensive that there is no incentive to repair them.

Coming from the House of Laws that sounds like a real cheek, but I agree. We do live in a throw away country as its more easy to throw out a shirt with a slight tear in it and buy a new one. I do agree with them on the issue of cloths but what of your old VCR needs repairing? The cost of the repair more than a new one, well your bound to buy a new one in that case.
