Derelict land in Glasgow used as community allotments for the last three
years have been destroyed by owners without warning, so that
allotmenteers were unable to retrieve plants and materials.

'Govanhill's guerrilla gardeners find their waste ground allotments
bulldozed | UK news | theguardian.com' (http://tinyurl.com/kb4erwo)


The gardeners knew it couldn't last but for the developers to destroy
everything without notice is ignorance beyond belief. What message are they
sending the locals? If they want local help or cooperation from the locals
in the future they have destroyed any chance now and by alienating everyone
possibly made their own job more difficult. Stupidity and short sightedness
doesn't come close.
