Whilst walking along a coastal path in Cornwall last weekend I noticed that the good berghers of that wondrous county had taken to placing their canine turdage in plastic bags before hoying them into nearby trees. I couldnt quite grasp the peculiar mentality that would have you pick up your dogs crap, place it in a carrier bag and then chuck it in a bush. Me and the missus had fun spotting the blighters in amongst gorse and dangling from branches though. Odd people....the Cornish, not us. :))

Used to happen in Wales to. Never really knew why.

Your suggesting reuniting the dog's dropping with its owners via their letterbox reminds me of what one of my exes did to a local Pizza Hut near our uni. Him and his mates got tired of getting olives they didn't order. They took an envelope full of the olives they'd picked off their pizzas and returned them to the shop to see how the owner liked taking delivery of olives he didn't want. Still makes me laugh now.


And am I alone in revulsing at soft brown shit on the pavement, but having to turn my back on people who are picking up after their dog's mess with one of those little plastic bags? Think how warm it still is:(

    • Morally they should, but we don't actually vote for parties in our electoral system. We vote for a parliamentary (or council) representative. That candidates group together under party unbrellas is irrelevant. We have a 'representative' democracy, not a party political one (if that makes sense). That's where I am on things at the moment. Reform are knocking on the door of the BNP, and using wedge issues to bait emotional rage. The Greens are knocking on the door of the hard left, sweeping up the Corbynista idealists. But it's worth saying that both are only ascending because of the failures of the two main parties and the successive governments they have led. Large parts of the country have been left in economic decline for decades, while city fat cats became uber wealthy. Young people have been screwed over by student loans. Housing is 40 years of commoditisation, removing affordabilty beyond the reach of too many. Decently paid, secure jobs, seem to be a thing of the past. Which of the main parties can people turn to, to fix any of these things, when the main parties are the reason for the mess that has been allowed to evolve? Reform certainly aren't the answer to those things. The Greens may aspire to do something meaningful about some of them, but where will they find the money to pay for it? None of it's easy.
    • Yes, but the context is important and the reason.
    • That messes up Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland - democracy being based on citizenship not literacy. There's intentionally no one language that campaign materials have to be in. 
    • TBH if people don't see what is sectarian in the materials linked to above when they read about them, then I don't think me going on about it will help. They speak for themselves.  I don't know how the Greens can justify promising to be a strong voice for one particular religion. Will that pledge hold when it comes to campaigning in East Dulwich (which is majority atheist)? https://censusdata.uk/e02000836-east-dulwich/ts030-religion
