Alternative uses for councils’ green slop buckets for people’s kitchens:

Gordon Brown’s new, improved military helmets for Afghanistan; a Tommy Cooper hat; stage props for Bill and Ben (Hilary Benn, that is); a paint bucket; and a plant pot.

I’m sure other readers have their own ideas for this piece of environmental stupidity. What a waste of (green) plastic.
