Hampshire Police Chief inspector Diana Boyles said: 'Urinating in the streets is considered to be a problem and both Eastleigh Borough Council and the police are looking at it.'

“Council bosses in Eastleigh, Hants, say the town has been blighted by people urinating in its streets, alleyways and shop doorways.”

Welcome back to the 7th century.

I just finished reading the chapter in Tale of Two Cities where Sydney Carton professes his love to Miss Minette but in a way that he doesn’t ask for anything but that she hold in her heart the memory that his last confidence was to her and that he can never free himself from the debauched person he is. Made me cry. Alcoholism is a terrible disease.

This is an entrepreneurial opportunity to export some very attractive, well appointed Porta-Johns!!!

From the article it does appear that Public restrooms are either closed overnight - or- have been eliminated permanently.

Bearing in mind that a high percentage of Brits use public transportation or walk to & from the local pubs - they cannot tinkle in the car - or in the hedge on the way home.

Other than that - civilization has ended.

LOL, another useless green job industry!

How long will it be before these are ordered by decree by King Obama to be on every street corner in the US. Thus creating more employment for the masses.

This reminds me of a story a co-worker told me. Her boy friend was arrested, yes arrested, for public urination. He ducked into a stand of trees to relieve himself and was suddenly surrounded by a dozen cops.

I suspect that the police had set up a drug or prostitution stake out and were mad at the guy for blowing their cover.

I thought “Wheelie bin Urinal” might be the newest leader of al Qaeda.

The scheme will only target male drinkers and there are no plans to create a woman's version of the toilet.

Until the feminists screech *discrimination* and demand that they be provided for women as well.

And when the design and implementation of said portable female urinals is not feasible, they'll be forced to remove the ones for the men and they'll be back to urinating in the streets.

Leave it to the feminists to turn back progress in the name of equality.

If this is really intended to accommodate drunks, they need to add a drink holder.
