Campaign group urges action on London freesheets

By Dominic wireposts

Project Freesheet, the London group campaigning against free newspapers, has written to all three mayoral candidates urging action on the issue of free newspapers.

Around 900,000 copies of thelondonpaper and London Lite are handed out a day by Associated Newspapers and News International.

The group has called for: more recycling bins, spot fines for those who litter, a ban on distributors forcing publishers to use distribution bins and penalties for publishers who deliberately print too many copies.
