Closed Charge supermarkets 1p for every item sold in non recyclable plastic

Closed on

Most of us recycle every item we can. I am frustrated with trying to buy food without plastic packaging. They charge 5p for a plastic carrier, introduce a national compulsory charge for supermarkets of 1p per plastic wrapped item. They will develop alternatives which will help reduce plastic waste.
