Come on kiddo I'm your age, maybe try and do it yourself? Might help with your grammer to!
Dislike: the green council that doesn't seem to be able to prioritise things for the majorities but spends a disproportionate amount on minorities. Hence - untidy streets, inability to travel in the snow and ice, unkempt public gardens, allowing cyclists to go the wrong way on one way streets, cycle lanes that make it more likely that they have an accident and spoil the views (take the Drive for instance). The merger with Hove that was better off without Brighton. Buildings left empty and dilapidated.
Like: being by the sea but near wonderful countryside, living in a cosmopolitan town (or city whatever), ability to travel easily to other towns to shop as I can't afford to shop in the city centre.
I stopped taking this post seriously when I realised you're blaming one set of people for problems that have dogged the town / city for years if not decades.

insane bus lanes like the one at rottingdean have made traffic horrific. if your policy is to make driving such an unpleasant experience you are forced onto a bus, then how democratic is that? yet another mob forcing their ideas on to people where there is no need. do as I say merchants, the opposite of freedom and democracy. incentivise people to use public transport. the buses are brilliant in brighton now compared to years ago. but its gone hand in glove with a gleeful whipping of motorists. if you are a bit snobby or holier than though you probably think they are fair game. hide behind poor little rufus's asthma or something as you just hate people in the suburbs as they are not as cool. but in reality its a nasty way to run a place.
it cracks me up how everyone thinks voting for the greens somehow makes the town a cut above. to the rest of the country they just roll their eyes yet again.
A truly great rant.
You may have to remind to what extent was the bus lane along the seafront down to the Greens?
Scratch the surface, and you'll realise it was built by the then Tory-led Brighton & Hove City Council, and the then- (and now) Tory-led East Sussex County Council.
are you actually blaming the merger with hove on the greens?
Nooveau Brightonians and their pretentious wankiness. hate hate HATE
