No, we wouldn't. Hitler posed no threat to us. Hundreds of thousands needlessly died. Can't understand why people insist we had to declare war on Germany and Hitler (who had, in fact, shown great admiration for the British and the Empire).

Israel (and it's people) would not exist

An illegal country would not have been forced on the natives of that land and thousands of Palestinians would not have been killed or had their homes bulldozed. This is a bad thing because....?

Wouldn't have been much left of the rest of Europe though... Plus once he'd got all that and even though he'd said they would remain neutral towards Britain what would have stopped him?
After all just leaving it would have given him a really strong foot hold.

Yeah, it should. I disagreed 100% with what was said and just wanted to argue it.

To bring things back on topic... copper nails is the way to go.

Very discreet

Arent there laws to protect the amount of light you get into your property hence trees HAVE to be trimmed or cut back?

But certainly contact the council. Find out if hes just not able to trim it - but be prepared for aggro if thats the attitude you take with you. Be reasonable and he may surprise you.

accidental oil spill near roots should do it!

guys, i dont know if you noticed my earlier post, a ring around the bark, 1 cm deep, will kill the tree. Basically instantly.

We used this all the time. All the tubes provifing water / nutreints to the tree are aranged around the outside of the trunk. If you ring it, you cut all water, instantly. The tree will wither and die, and that will be that.

Game over.

Noted

My father-in-law illegidly did a great job of killing huge conifers by exposing the roots & digging a load of copper sulphate around them... The tree was dead in a few days too

I know this works with leylandi - dont ask how!

Dig a hole to expose a major root underground as close as possible to the main trunk.

Drill a big hole into the root.

Three quarters fill the hole with Sodium Chlorate.

Hammer a wooden peg in to seal up the hole.

repeat as many times as you can.

Sit back an watch said tree become firewood.

The main benefit over ringbarking is that all the "damage" is underground and on your property so it will be difficult if not impossible for him to prove anything.

Good luck!
You can buy sodium chlorate weed killers from garden centers etc.
