The problem is too big for just pointing at, so the other classic local rag genre of hand gesturing is in play.

Round here, people (rightly) complain to the local rag when the council do cut grass and verges - that grass has been supporting wildlife. And it does look nice.The problem is too big for just pointing at, so the other classic local rag genre of hand gesturing is in play.

exactly what mx wcfc said; it is great for wildlife. The alternative is pesticides and weedkillers which kill wildlife and children!The problem is too big for just pointing at, so the other classic local rag genre of hand gesturing is in play.

It may be great for wildlife, but it's not necessarily the ideal place to create a long-grass wildlife area, particularly if there are no other short grass areas where children can play.
Using pesticides around the edges as the story mentions is obviously problematic, but council grounds maintenance services have been cut right back over the years, to the extent where there often simply aren't the necessary staff to maintain everything properly, whether that's as short grass play areas or longer grass wildlife areas - even the latter have to be managed to some extent.

FFS, I posted that as a piss-take of the classic local rag photo genre, not for a bloody discussion about grass cutting. 
It's not a bloody verge, it's a small patch of grass, which used to be maintained, surrounded by houses on 3-sides, where young kids used to play, which is important in an urban borough that happens to have less green public space per head of population than anywhere else in the UK.
There's plenty of fucking space for wildlife, just over a mile north from there, called the South Downs National Park.

They can fly north, just like the seagulls should fuck off in a southerly direction.
