I think Euphorbia lathyris has lower leaves that are long and oblong while these are more tapered. Plants similar to this (to my eye) have been identified as E. oblongata (prev.E. depauperata).

Mike a key difference is that the stem leaves of Euphorbia oblongata are finely toothed and alternate along the stem while the stem leaves of E. Lathyrus are entire and opposite. Can't tell from the photo what this plant has - so I'll reject the record you can always come back to it and change it after a leaf inspection
