It's very successful in France.

Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

Because there’s a cost implication for running the scheme governments haven’t been in favour of increasing costs and bureaucracy

Be interested to see an independent business case, we recycle cans and glass at home and at work. On this basis, I presume that a refundable scheme would generate only incremental benefits with costs better invested elsewhere such as the NHS?

Money doesn't get invested specifically into any dept it goes into general taxation. This is why the Brexit promise of money saved will go to the NHS was so laughable, but ppl fell for it

There's a choice how government money is spent e.g. a 20 mph limit or more nurses.

yeah, you could take money meant for the Welsh NHS and spend it elsewhere like the Senedd has done,

It's ironic how so many on here called for the regulation of scooters and E bikes, but when safety measures that affect them, like this they don't like it.

Only the 20 mph speed limit is nothing to do with safety it is just a way to gain extra revenue from motorist. Not sure what your post has to do with refundable bottles and cans though.
Not like you to go off topic again is it.

You really think the illegally riden ebikes and scooters will stick to the 20mph speed limit if it is introduced.

Not doing Brexit would have allowed us to invest a lot more in nurses, schools, hospitals, armed forces, and transport.

Glad you have highlighted the importance of a strong economy to fund our essential public services.

Our economy is stronger than the Euro Zone which has entered recession. Thank for highlighting another Brexit benefit.

The Euro zone may be in recession, but it’s incorrect to say our economy is stronger. Our economy has taken a lot longer to regain the ground we lost during the pandemic, revised figures show U.K. GDP our economy mph grew beyond the pre pandemic level in February this year, the Euro Zone economy smashed that figure ages ago.
Even though the Eurozone is in now recession, it’s growth last year was much much higher than our growth.

And our economy grew much faster than the EU in the year before that.

The Euro Zone had hardly smashed anything with over 6% unemployment.

The Euro Zone regained the ground it lost during the pandemic by the end of December 2021, we didn’t achieve that milestone until February 2023 - 14 months later. There may be times when we’re showing a faster growth rate, but the bottom line is we are behind the curve in comparison.
