I write to complain about the volume of debris that is now being left within the city centre of Brighton and Hove.

It appears the streets are no longer swept or cleaned.

On Saturdays, I often walk in East Street and find the debris, street litter and bags have not been attended to having been left from the previous day or days.

I have just returned from a two-week stay in Manchester, which is kept clean and has a culture is of "done now", not "tomorrow".

To save me having to keep apologising to visitors or telling them not to visit, can someone please advise on when the city will again be properly maintained?
