A woman in Nottingham is reported to have been fined £150 by a local authority after leaving a single kale leaf in a supermarket trolley. Multiple outlets describe the incident as “littering,” with the fine issued following a complaint or enforcement action related to the item being left in the shopping area. The reports say the woman was treated as having dropped or left the leaf in the trolley or car park, despite its small size. Coverage also notes that the fine has been criticized online and described as disproportionate by some commentators. The woman’s name is not consistently reported across outlets in the material provided, and details on whether she challenged the decision or appealed the fine are not included in the supplied excerpts. Overall, the articles agree on the core facts: the fine amount (£150), the location (Nottingham, linked to a supermarket setting), and the object involved (a single kale leaf).
