An article published 16 March with the headline 'What IS happening to Brighton?', which has since been deleted, reported on complaints by local residents that taxpayers' money had been 'wasted' by Brighton and Hove City Council on failed 'pet projects' while public services such as bin collections and maintaining public toilets had suffered neglect. The article was subject to a complaint by the Labour Council administration, who pointed out that it contained a number of photographs showing litter overflowing onto the streets which had been taken some years previously, when the council was under a different administration. The article claimed budget cuts combined with tax rises had 'left residents in poverty' - the administration noted that this was not possible given the changes to the budget had not taken effect at the date of publication. The article further stated that the council had rowed back on a decision to shut almost all public toilets in the area following a public backlash, and suggested that the Labour administration had performed a U-turn on a policy it had previously supported. They say that Labour councillors had in fact forced the Greens to abandon these plans before they took overall control of the council. We are happy to clarify the Labour Council administration's position on these points, and apologise for any misleading impression given.
