Is This the Tree of the Year?
If you have read Lord of the Rings you will probably agree that trees are more intelligent than humans and definitely more tan politicians.
For those who would never vote for a politician, you now have an opportunity to vote for a tree.

Our tree is 37 metres high, with a 5,25 metre trunk diametre and has been providing shade to local residents for 120 years.

Anyone can vote on-line, so let’s support our local tree; in fact a parliament full of live Wood would be a pleasant alternative.
