    Yup, there's no excuse for that either, but I guess it's easier cleaned up than on a beach, and there's no excrement to deal with.

    I was always brought up to dispose of any litter I created, and if there wasn't a bin around, take whatever it was (crisp packets, sweets, bottles of juice) back with me to dispose of later. If I'd dared to just drop stuff on the ground and leave it, I'd have been belted by my dad, and told in *no uncertain terms* never to do it again! So, as an adult, that's been instilled in me to this day.

    I wonder how many generations of kids have passed since, where their parents couldn't have given two monkeys about that, or respecting the environment, and subsequently turned into adults who've practiced the same irresponsible, filthy behaviour? And now we see the consequences....

    Yeah, always felt the same and my kids, knew that from the off, DO NOT THROW YOUR LITTER ON THE STREET ETC !

    It's a message that I think has never really been instilled, continuously throughout generation here, sadly.

    The things I've seen in front of my eyes have been shocking, almost unbelievable. I've seen full bags of McDonald's left overs, tossed from moving car windows, on more than one occasion.

    A few weeks back when my daughter and I were in Nottingham loading the car for her return home. Two hoodies, directly outside her premises entrance with Subways takeaway. Stood there, picking bits out of their meals and dropping them on the floor.

    This is in full view of cars, stopping at traffic lights, on a major, main road - no regard, no shame.

    As well as the mess on the pavement, both of us had to navigate the horrible saucy splatter, every time we went in to get bits and then when we went out of the building to load the car.

    My daughter could tell by my face, I said to her "what da heck was that about ??"

    She said "I know Dad, no home training"....

    Winning the titles a bit like being given a massive bag of money when all you can pay for things with is a card and all the banks are shut!!

    For me, it puts everything into perspective, without ONE IOTA of conspiracy theory - just rational scientific thinking, logic and common sense, from a very switched-on and perceptive doctor, and which subsequently has comprehensively changed my view of what *exactly* is happening now in relation to this pandemic, and the REAL cause/source of the virus!

    Honestly, guys, if you really want to know what is very likely to be the truth, you should set aside some time to watch the video below. That is, if you want to know the truth, as opposed to what the media want you to believe instead.

    P.S To view it, simply supply a legit email (doesn't need to be your main one). You won't receive any spam or anything like that. It'll be worth the effort, trust me!

    Well, that's fine. You're entitled to your opinion - I couldn't disagree more.

    And you haven't watched it properly [impossible as the video is over 2 hours long], only skimmed through it and simply dismissed the remainder, because the contents conflict with your belief system. It's classic cognitive dissonance, and so entirely understandable.

    I do hope that others taking the time to watch the video can overcome theirs (should it apply), and get to the end, in order to successfully digest the content.

    There is no content to be dismissive of. It's just waffle completely unsupported by any data or facts.
