UK - London - Fly-tipping under a Environment Act sign

Fly-tipping left on a Lewisham street beneath a council sign threatening fines ad/or imprisonment. cardboard boxes, childrens' toys, a sofa and plastic can be seen on the ground under the sign - a blatant disregard for local bylaws and rules against the dumping of refuse and garbage. Enforcement officers operate in this area and they have the power to enforce penalties of up to £50,000 and/or six months imprisonment - a threat but obviously not enough of a deterent.
