Litter campaign targets smokers |  The council spends �1m a year cleaning the city's streets |
A new poster campaign in Gloucester warns the city's smokers that a dropped butt will lead to a �75 fine if they are caught. The No Ifs - No Butts series of posters is part of an ongoing drive to stop people dropping rubbish on streets. The council currently spends �1m a year clearing rubbish from the city and has increased fines from �50 to �75. The no-tolerance approach comes after a period of informing the public about the cost of littering.
