Why, Oh Why, Oh Why do we allow hoody-wearing layabouts such freedom? Not only are they probably communists, but hoody-wearing layabouts have this week been revealed as drilling for oil in one family's back garden.

If only the Government and the guacomole-munchers of Islington were a little less concerned with helping Johnny-foreigner and a little more concerned with the rights of the hard working majority of our glorious Nation, then perhaps hoody-wearing layabouts would not get away with such treachery.

That certainly seems to be the opinion of A homeowner who this week said, "the lady’s not for turning".

So, next time you are at a dinner party and the menu involves sun dried tomatoes, just consider whether you think that drilling for oil in one family's back garden is acceptable behaviour.
