Do you agree with the idea of carrier bags being 5p in 2015

i dont see why u have to bring other stuff into it like sex and drinking etc
its a bloody plastic bag there are no similarities between them and 5p is nothing. if you find having to fork out 5p for a bag economically difficult then you must be homeless (which i highly doubt).

why is this even a debate there is no bad thing about it

Depending on how much the government decides to get itself involved, resources could be better spent elsewhere on trying to save the environment.

Also, they say the 5p will go to charities - will these be the same charities that keep spamming plastic charity collection bags through my letterbox? Seems slightly ironic.

ITS ONLY 5P!!!!!!!!!! jeez these eco friendly recycling schemes work so well in the rest of europe


when i went to germany i didn't see ONE shop giving out plastic bags

everyone rides a bike in germany

and they have huge machines in lidl and aldi where you put your bottles in and get money back its great!
