Former Bristol University student, Marcus Brigstocke, is the frontman for a new anti-cigarette litter video being showcased across our city today. In the footage, he slams smokers who throw their butts on the floor as being selfish and stupid.
A huge screen mounted on a van will drive through Bristol city centre showing the video today (April 21). The five-metre wide screen will be driven to Lloyds Amphitheatre from 10am, and will show a video made by national anti-litter and fly-tipping organisation Clean Up Britain.
In the film, Marcus also says it costs locals hundreds of thousands of pounds annually to clean the butts off their streets. He also reveals that anyone caught throwing their butts on the floor be handed a £2,500 fine and even sent to prison.
