Does anyone know what this is?

Hi guys, 

I'm new to the forum, and to gardening in general! Recently moved into a new house and have found this growing in abundance in my front garden bed, the roots seem to be everywhere! Any help getting with getting rid will be much appreciated.

Thank you!

    Ground elder I suspect, I am sure someone more knowledgeable can confirm or not. I am sure google will get you advice on eradicating it.

    Had this in my garden and used strong glyphosate over a period of 4 years -  sprayed 3 times a year in the spring, summer and early autumn. Now it has all gone.

    They now make something called Roseate (look online) - very strong glyphosate - use a sprayer. It is does work well.
