For a while there was a solution involving “hoop” bins with clear plastic bags so you could see what was inside them.
But recent terror attacks (which used knives and vehicles, not bins) prompted their removal again.
- slazaro 8y agoWait, that doesn't make any sense. If the see-through bins solved a problem, why would they be removed when a different problem appears? They're independent problems, removing the bins when they're not involved in the new kind of attacks seems just random.
- dev_north_east 8y agoYep, pretty much. I live not-in-London and during one of the heightened periods of security last year (armed police everywhere) all clear bag bins were removed from the metro and bus stations. This of course led to littering. It didn't make any sense.
