Congratulations to everyone in Brighton and Hove who voted on May 7 to end the awful Green Party experiment with our wonderful city.

The Green Party’s legacy including declining recycling rates, some of the country’s worst traffic congestion and now a drop in the use of buses (Fewer people travel by bus, Argus, May 8) will be hard for the new administration to deal with, but I am sure many people feel that now the Greens are no longer even the official opposition on the council things can only get better.
