Apathy blamed for 'this shocking plastic river' in Sleaford
Public apathy is being blamed for a constant flow of rubbish in a waterway dubbed a "shocking plastic river".
The River Slea, in Sleaford, Lincolnshire, is blighted by waste which gathers at a narrow channel in the town centre, campaigners say.
The town's mayor, Grenville Jackson, said the problem was largely caused by people's laziness.
"People throw it down and walk off - as far as they are concerned it's not there anymore," he said.
