….When it's a tree!

I have a 20 foot wall of conifers backing onto my garden which effectively blocks out the light to an area of my garden. I have tried to get the neighbour to reduce the size of his conifers with the offer of cash. He refused to do so. I petitioned ERYCC to issue an order under the 'High Hedges' legislation and duly paid £384 which is the council's costs. Despite knowing that 4 properties at the rear of his house were pxxxed off with his trees and to escape the imposition of an order by the council, my neighbour has simply cut a gap between the trees which had grown into each other thereby forming a hedge. By cutting the gaps the hedge became a line of individual trees and therefore not subject to the high hedges legislation.

This is a loophole in the legislation which I believe should be closed. It won't help me but it might help others in the future. I have submitted on on-line petition to Parliament and would be grateful if the Tiger Nation would consider supporting it. Follow the following link:

trust me
a hedge is better than a chav blasting music constantly
oh chav is an offensive term?

ok a low iq degenerate inbred? who should be put down in my honest opinion, we are over populated as it is, human rights my ass,
is that better?
they are not working class, they are scum, hull has some of the most inbred degenerate people i have ever encountered in my life, they are not human, put em in the gas chamber imo
they couldn't put a sentence together
city is ****ed
world would be better off with em all gone, kill em off, worse than locusts

working class are proud people who care about themselves
who want to better themselves
who have morales and respect

or when its a hedge fund!
 
If the trees run along your boundary - dig a trench on your side along the frees - use a good axe to chop through the main roots that go onto your property as they're on your land - then wait for the wind to blow
