Question Plants ID please :o)

This little plant seems to be popping up all over my back garden, looks like a pretty miniature tree/bush.

Spurge is not only toxic as tort food it's toxic to your skin and can cause severe burning from the milky sap!

the creeping buttercup one isn't creeping buttercup but not sure what
