be turfed



be turfed

To be ejected, evicted, or otherwise forcibly removed (from someplace). Primarily heard in UK. The drunkard was turfed after he started a fight with another customer in the bar. I just found out that we're being turfed at the end of the month because the landlord wants to move back into the house himself.
