Velociraptor Nov 2019 12:32pm, 8 Nov 2019 43,827 posts	0 Velociraptor Agricultural hedge cutters should be obliged to hoover the road as they go along. Failure to observe this law should result in many hours of community service involving cutting hawthorn hedges with secateurs and clearing the cuttings with their bare hands.

Also complaints about overgrown hedges to be made a criminal offence punishable by death.
