A council slammed for cutting down trees has come under fire again for butchering palm trees thought to have been attracting late-night sexual antics.
Plymouth City Council has been accused of felling several palm trees in Hoe Park near the city's waterfront, after claims the area was being used for sex and drug-taking.
The authority, which caused uproar in March after contractors cut down 110 mature trees while residents slept, said the work was "necessary" in order to tackle anti-social behaviour.
