The word, “Grass” often appears in posts on this forum. It seems to relate to the dilemma of reporting the actions of a dangerous colleague. Personally, I think that may be the right course of action. An English Language and Usage website gives this etymology:
"Grass, in British English, can be used as a verb or a noun to describe a police informer or the actions of said informer. Oxford gives:
noun: British informal, A police informer.
verb: British informal, Inform the police of someone’s criminal activities or plans
The term “grass” has been widened in its usage to also mean “reporting someone to an authority figure”:
Don’t eat those biscuits or I’ll grass you up to mother!
Oxford suggests that the term may have come from rhyming slang, namely grasshopper/copper. "
I notice in more recent times the word has acquired the suffix ‘up’, as in: ‘he grassed me up’, ‘we’ve been grassed up’ etc.

If there’s no a convenient motorway bridge being built in the area, I guess a grass might end up under the green stuff in your garden if they go to the law about the wrong people?
Actually considering most bridges seem to be built off-site now rather than poured concrete and left overnight, I do wonder what the next Jimmy the Snitch will be helping to prop up, or how many crims are getting worried about the bridges being removed / updated on the M1 and M6.

It is, but it’s greener on the other side.
