Once again, Brighton and Hove City Council's "softly, softly" approach to the problem of travellers has resulted in them overrunning our public parks and places.

Not content with breaking down barriers to enter such places, they then make them a no-go area.

Since travellers have entered Preston Park, we have no longer been able to walk our dogs or grandchildren there.

Let's hope the council moves quickly to rid our city of such unwanted intrusions.

If not, perhaps the residents of Brighton and Hove should withhold their rates until such time as our wishes are met.
