Prime Minister's Office

More details from petition creator

A 79 year old disabled lady in the rural village of Urchfont, Wilts has spent the last 8 years tending lovingly to a very small 'triangle' of land at the entrance to the village, including funding the plants from her own pension. She has now been told by council bureacrats that she must stop unless she gets a license, wears a fluorescent jacket, carries and places 3 signs in the road, and has a permanent lookout with her. Failing this the plot will be tarmaced. Officialdom gone mad. Click on link for more info http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/wiltshire/6939840.stm
