In b4 the council knocks the wall down because it wasn’t fixed by a qualified brickie.

To be fair, this has some merit, imagine a wall collapsing and hurting a toddler, the responsibility for it lies on the council, and so they want the work done properly or not at all, basically. That’s why they’d rather knock this down if it were not done by them, just to play it safe.

That’s wise too, because as we all know, humans are often very dumb, and just because this guy thinks he knows how to fix a wall, doesn’t mean he’s actually any good at it.

Unfortunately the council err on the side of not bothering to fix it at all, usually…

See my comment, as rushed and poorly worded as it is, for an explanation of why they knock such things down, as sad as that is :-(
