They have no legs to stand on?

Mrs Wycherley received a letter after allegedly dropping the butt in a supermarket car park.

“The world has gone crackers,” she said.

“Where are these heroes when it comes to a Friday night and the place is littered with chip paper, vomit and drink bottles?”

She said no-one spoke to her at the scene but she received an “intimidating letter” two days later.

Mike Roberts, head of the council’s street care team, defended the fine.

He said: “A significant minority of people continue to drop litter and the council is committed to taking enforcement action.”
