Default OAPs fught over Hedge

The message
from "Sue & Bob Hobden" contains these words:
"Essjay001" wrote in message


I suspect that when the new law comes into force there will be arrogant
*******s who will think that the new law does not apply to them, or that
"no law will make me cut my hedge"


Of course there will be, like there are those that think you can go at
traffic lights despite it not being green.
The point is with this law comes a legal way to settle a dispute fairly with
legal enforcement to back it up.


The question of whether it is to be retrospective should be addressed.
"Well, my hedge was 250 feet high before the law was passed, so it's
exempt." would otherwise be an arguable case.
