General   (General discussion, talk about anything.)

Overgrown verges become full of litter, including discarded food wrapping/containers etc, and these attract rats, and you also get a certain amount of broken glass, and other stuff which is dangerous to tread on, for humans and animals, so when you think about how little space is taken up by these verges, in comparison to the surrounding grassed area's, the effect on nature of cutting the grass is insignificant, it is just a stealthy way for Councils and the Government to save money.
