    Looking for a drug dealers stash no doubt, see it all the time in this lovely city of sanctuary.

    Lived here in Brighton & Hove all my life 59 years – fourth generation. B&H used to be such a lovely, ambient and friendly place. The dross of London have descended upon us in catastrophic numbers, like never before, together with their rudeness, attitude and ( I’m from London, chip on their shoulder), slowly but surely they have turned B&H into a …hole. I wish they would … back to London, and leave us proper Brightonians in piece.

      Some of us leave London to get away from the dross, there are to many towns and cities that have been ruined by the dross…. Brighton happens to be one of the worst places for it.

      London was a dump because people like you allowed it to become one, it’s almost as if everywhere you go becomes a dump.

        Yes, there was no drug problem and trouble before Londoners made Brighton their home. Some of us are nice people, not drug dealing scum, let’s have it right, must the drug addict scum Brighton let’s in are northerners. Grow up!

    Unfortunately that grave yard is always full of Brightons finest waiting for drug dealers to arrive. Always this time of day, never a police officer in sight.

    The church needs to put up a fence around the back of the property, its just negligent leaving it open for them to to walk in and use the area as a shooting gallery.

    The clown in the picture is regularly seen shoplifting in and around George Street, again police have no undercover officers in the area ever. A 999 call takes over 10 mins to have an officer arrive. Shambles

      If plod had any gumption. All they have to do is wait for this individual to appear at First Base Day Centre, where he is a regular client.
      That’s probably like too much hard work though.
