Definitely won’t stop people going through the bins

Should’ve been done immediately. It’s not like other countries haven’t gone through the exact same process (the Netherlands for example).
But better late than never I suppose.

This will reduce the barrier of entry to collecting bottles which could get more people involved in collecting bottles.
This could then increase the amount of bags people already involved in this need to open to end up making the same amount of money they were making before.
This would have been a much better idea if implemented from the start before people had baseline incomes from doing this.

People will still go into the bins, guaranteed. Cos other people will still put bottles and cans in them.

This is great news. I’ve felt a bit guilty dumping my drink bottles/cans after lunch, but not enough to go to the effort of finding a return point to cash it in for 15 cent. This is a much better solution.

Can they be added to bin liners so when the seagulls rip the shit out of them and leave a mess they can get what they want quicker? I

Just wait for next weeks headline about a strong breeze blowing all the lovely recyclables into the river.
I reckon this will have its own public sinn fein moment

Great all the bottles and cans which were not being discarded creating litter can now go back to being litter the moment a bit of wind happens.

Why is our dear country so backwards. When did progression become regression.

Dystopia. The new “let them eat cake”.
Altruistic having to have the most in need avoid digging in bins? Jesus wept.

Unusually quick improvement, nice one.
