I'd gladly support a national ban on plastic carrier bags. |

I am in two minds. I use a reusable bag all the time. I also get the bulk of my food online without bags. The bags that I do get I use for rubbish bags and so they are all reused. Such a tax would mean that I have to actually buy bin bags. They should ban non biodegradable bags of any type including in all packaging. Also fine litterers far more heavily. |

I use the green bags whenever I can and have built a collection of them from Tesco, Sainsbury's and Asda. The problem I get is when I'm out and remember I need to pop in to to Co-op to grab a couple of bits I'm not likely to have a reusable bag on me. |

We use our carriers as liners for the waste bin in the kitchen. |
