I was fined £1,000 for silly bin day mistake ANYONE could make – Christmas is now ruined for my 5 kids

A MUM-of five was slapped with a £1,000 fine right before Christmas for making a simple mistake with her bins.

Trisha Malone from Birmingham said the eye-watering penalty has ruined the holidays and she even faces a criminal record if she doesn’t pay.
