Rubbish thrown on the floor and owners not picking up after their dogs. Despite 130 cleaners working tirelessly to maintain Monaco’s exemplary cleanliness, the Principality’s streets have come under fire on social media lately, following recent littering and some disrespectful behaviour.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Piles of paper cups, brown paper bags and empty chip cones strewn along the pavements and flowerbeds… a sad reality that is becoming all too common in the UNESCO Gardens in the Fontvieille district, much to the annoyance of passersby. People are taking to social media to express their frustration, with one user explaining how “every lunchtime, people eat on the steps around this shopping area and leave it in an awful state, covered in grease with lots of rubbish left behind.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“It’s disgraceful! These people should be given fines and made to clean up the city,” remarked one woman on Facebook.
