Since I moved to Brighton four years ago from London, I have yet to see any positive actions by Brighton and Hove City Council.

I cannot help but feel people in this area have the wool pulled over their eyes. How can this council can be so incompetent and get away with it?

Look at the streets - how dirty they are. London Road, the first road for visitors coming to the city, has rubbish everywhere and rats (I have seen these). Look at some of the roads - full of potholes.

Have the people of Brighton and Hove become insensitive to dirt and flies or has the council managed to blindfold the locals? I have one question for the council people: When are you going to resign? We need people who love this city to run it, not a bunch of useless, incompetent bureaucrats.
