We’ve had to build a fortress around our home to fight off McDonald’s builders… they won’t face us – but we will NOT let them get away with it [Video]

A furious neighbour has been forced to build a “fortress” around her home to stop building work by McDonald’s.

Rachel Laidler, 55, recently launched a protest against the fast food giant by unfurling a cheeky banner ten minutes before it opened a new restaurant next door

Rachel and her husband Peter, 70, who claims McDonald’s has wrecked her perimeter wall, put up the banner saying ‘We’re not Lovin it – see the unrepaired damage they left behind their fence.’

The couple believe a 15ft trench for a water treatment tank less than two metres from their boundary caused their concrete retaining wall to slip and crack.

They have been forced to prop up the precarious wall with rubble and pallets, including the wooden posts used to hoist the banner, fearing it will topple over and damage their detached home.
