The Legacy of Glastonbury Rubbish

The photo on page 5 of the English 'Times' dated the 30th June 2015 hardly surprised me - it was one of acres of litter left behind by the fans who had attended the Glastonbury Festival. And I recall similar photos being published in the newspapers in previous years.

What's with these guys? Were they too stoned to know what they weren't doing? Or hadn't they been taught by their mummies that it's not nice to drop sweet wrappers on the floor? Or had they been taught but still did it anyway as a deliberate repudiation of what they might consider to be middle class values? Or are they just, well, dirty?

Or did nice Mrs Eavis simply not provide enough litter bins?
