Fined For Giving A Chip To Seagull
`Schoolboy Jack Double was hit with a £50 litter fine – for feeding a seagull half a chip.
Two zealous officials handed Jack, 14, an on-the-spot ticket after seeing him toss the halfeaten morsel at the hungry bird.
They even followed him to his school to enforce the penalty.
Yet three weeks earlier litter chiefs from the same council proudly awarded him a certificate praising him for binning rubbish.’
