TODAY, I spotted a fly tipped sofa on a country lane in Marchwood.

The kindest interpretation I can put on this is that the owner dumped it there as a protest in response to the threat of closing or reducing service at our Household Waste Recycling Centres.

If your readers agree with me, that we are likely to see a huge increase in fly tipping, they may like to join the 1,500 people, to date, who have already signed: https://www.change.org/p/hampshire-county-council-keep-marchwood-household-waste-recycling-centre-open.
