filth

[markd]

having lived in Hastings for 2 months now I feel quite embaressed inviting friends and family down due to the disgusting state of the place.I have never seen so much rubbish scattered about a town before,I,ve heard people blame the seagulls,dogs etc but that is just an excuse.
I have been working in Brighton [they to have seagulls] streets were clean,
I have just returned from northern France,the coastal resorts were spotless and they take a pride in there town/village,
It seems to me Hastings has a lot of very lazy very selfish residents/visitors who couldn,t give a toss about anything or anybody else and the bin men only seem to pick up the minimum,I have seen a trail of rubbish left after they had charged thru the town!
Something needs to be done to combat this epedemic,do the council have ideas?

I HAVE BEEN PROMISED A BIN AFTER XMAS MAYBE WE HAVE SUCH A LOT OF RUBBISH ON THE STREETS IS NOT BECAUSE WE ARE LAZY OR DIRTY BUT BEACAUSE THE COUNCIL HAVENT GIVEN US ANY BINS SO WE HAVE T O PUT OUT BLACK SACKS AND THE BIRDS AND FOXES TEAR THEM UP.
SOME PEOPLE HAVE ALREADY GOT BINS BUT NOT ALL HOW ABOUT DEVONSHIRE RD HASTINGS RENTED PLACES NO COUNCIL BINS FORTHEM AND RATS RUNNING UP THE STREET IVE SEEN THEM NOT THE TENANTS FAULT LOVELY SIGHT FOR VISITORS COMING OFF THE TRAINS
