    Cork, particularly Mahon, has come out as being the most littered area in the country, according to the latest survey by IBAL.

    Is the City Council not doing their job properly, or are we just dirty people?

    People are generally shiftless and expect 'someone else' to pick up after them, whether that's their parents or the council.

    Getting lots of coverage on the "meja"!

    Councilor Deirdre Forde on Newstalk just now, with a response to more CCTV coverage of the blackspots "who's going to monitor them" she wonders? Jasus you couldn't make it up!

    Reminds me a bit of the response many years ago to the proposal that gondolas be put on the Lough, "who's going to feed them"? Might have been Councilor Bernie Murphy who asked that question.😁 😁

    Heard that.

    Someone said they throw cigarette butts out of the car window because they bring kids in the car sometimes.

    If only there was some sort of bin you could buy to put butts into...people are genuinely stupid and lazy.
