No idea what the tree was, but I need to ensure its complete and permanent
demise.
Apart from the old drill-holes-in-stump and pour in diesel/old-sump-oil
trick (don't have any mouldy sump oil to hand anyway) what would be a good
product to use?
Are any of these any good?

Some of those seem to be glyphospate based, which I *thought* acted on
foliage. I need something that can be applied to the cut trunk end that will
travel through the tree's system.

I've used the Roundup Stump Killer. Drilled a hole in the top of the stump and poured the liquid in using the plastic pipette that comes with it (during a dry period), then topped it up every few days as it soaked into the stump. I can now declare the stump is well and truly dead.
