Sounds as if the lawn under the leylandi gets some sun, so more feed, and water should be the way to go. One way to help keep moisture in the turf...

I have some ammonium sulphamate crystals sold as 'Deep Root' sold by 'Growing success' I've found it very good on stumps of all kinds. Cut the ivy...
Laurel contains a bit of cyanide, but as far as I know it won't leach out in to the surroundings, and it will gradually decompose. So I would just...
For the rocket, let some go to seed. Collect the seed and sow it for the next crop. You should never need to buy any more rocket seed. Not much...
