Are they going to dig up all the bulbs?
How many children have been poisoned by ingesting daffodils?

I've just seen this on TV on a news item.

It is just in a fenced off play area, from what I have read. I imagine the council are liable if a child ate poisonous flowers that had been planted in a designated area for them. People claim compensation for all kinds of things they should have personal responsibility for

Really?

If the Daily Mail told you the Queen was a lizard, would you believe them?

Actually, don't answer that...

Seriously? What absolutely bonkers tosh!

A council in Cornwall has decided no more daffodils should be planted as they are poisonous and children might eat them! Another example of a bonkers world?
