four inches of trash = felony

A london man was fined 225 quid and (more importantly) given a criminal record for having a rubbish bin (big wheeled trash can) full enough that the lid wouldn’t quite shut. Keeping in mind that things are only collected every two weeks, and… meh, can’t be bothered to make a good post. Read the whole nonsense yourself.
Last week Whitehaven magistrates convicted him in his absence of “over-filling the receptacle used to dispose of waste” - a criminal offence.
Yeesh.
