A Tory councillor who sparked outrage after ordering more than 100 city centre trees to be chopped down in the middle of the night ironically lives on an upmarket street lined with trees of its own.
Plymouth City Council leader Richard Bingley signed an executive order to fell the trees as part of a multi-million pound redevelopment scheme earlier this week.
That's despite the local authority pausing its plans for the £12.7million project due to objections from residents.
