Great! In order to help save the planet I now have to pay 5p for a
single use plastic bag
.
Fact is, I have
always
used
all
my bags twice — they were re‐deployed as bin liners for my rubbish.
Instead, I now have to buy actual
single use bags
to act as liners.
The Government would do better to attend to the excessive use of non‐degradable packaging elsewhere in the supermarket:
- Why do they sell ordinary tap water in plastic bottles?
- Why is a fresh pizza wrapped in up to three layers of plastic and cardboard?
