Sheffield Street Trees 2018, Lorax Prepare for Once-ler Arb Army's Imminent Return

2017 witnessed the continuation of the felling of thousands of Sheffield's biggest and best street trees, an estimated 6,000 were felled by the time the arb army's chainsaws fell silent just prior to Christmas day as the Once-ler Arb and their supporting Bouncers retreated Southwards and Northwards, giving the people of Sheffield peace for at least a couple of weeks, but not before butchering several of Abbeydale Park Rise's Christmas light Cherry tree's, leaving behind a bitter Christmas present for the little children to cry over.
However, now as the holidays end the Arb Once-ler army is on the march once more as evidenced by the yellow parking restriction signs that have appeared on dozens of Sheffield's tree lined streets, signaling the imminent return of the bouncers from the North to accompany the Arb army from the South who have lost all credibility amongst their arboricultural colleagues not just across the rest of the UK but across the whole wide world. Of why are these so called Arb's felling thousands of healthy street trees! Which goes against everything that Arb's are supposed to stand for. The simple answer is - for PROFIT! ££££££! What more can one expect from Arb Once-ler's and their local council minions the Labour Counce-ler's.
Against this are a relatively small band of determined LORAX who seek to peacefully resist the tree felling onslaught as they successfully managed to do so during the last few weeks of the Once-ler's 2017 campaign, limiting the damage done to barely 1/3rd of the Once-ler's December tree felling target.
In terms of damage to the city of Sheffield then it is already too late for this once proud city that has been ravaged due to being in the grips of a one party Labour state for a decade, a city that has had its reputation and economy ruined by a the ruling Labour Council elite, several of whom have professed to not understanding the contracts that they tend to so eagerly sign up to that Sheffielders' subsequently have to pay the price for decades to come.
And so 2018 is likely to increasingly witness an ever more efficient Once-ler felling machine kill hundreds more of Sheffield's remaining majestic big trees, a few of which will be replaced by twigs that tend to bend and break in the wind.
Meanwhile, Sheffield's LORAX's will be out on the street's doing their best to delay the tree felling's until the May 2018 Local Elections, so that the people of Sheffield can vote the Labour city once-lers out of office!
