'Stop throwing litter - you’ll be taken more seriously'
It’s all well and good taking time off school or, as they are saying, ‘strike’, but maybe they should be looking to modify their own behaviour before they start telling others to.
Anyone who has had the misfortune to have to use public transport after school children travelling to and from school, will understand my complaint.

When they start putting pressure on themselves and other children not to deposit huge amounts of litter then maybe, as a group, they will be taken more seriously.
