Endless fly-posting, the (thankfully removed) contraption fixed to the lamp-post outside Boots, etc.
Why does the town have to be reduced to looking like a slum by these idiots?

'endless fly posting', 'reduced to looking like a slum'. Can I suggest a bit more accuracy and less hyperbole local 99 if you want to be taken seriously and people to take note of whatever it is you are trying to say and understand your point.

Well nevillman � try walking from Laura Ashley to the library, via WHSmith and the Premier Inn. You'll see the start of what I'm sure � if left unchecked � will become an endless splurge of further posters and graffiti which will indeed render the town to be far more slummy than is necessary or appropriate.

Was in Brighton recently, one evening when the shops were shut and EVERY shop with a metal roller shutter was completely covered in graffiti (roller blinds enforced by insurance companies, to ensure cover ) The place looked appalling. Street art should be clamped down on, and culprits caught and made en example of. Fines and community service cleaning it off etc etc. Otherwise it just escalates into other crimes.

Nevillman dear boy, presumably you�d like your property defaced in this manner ?
Though I imagine you enjoy Lewes becoming an �edgy� place to live providing this stops at Nevill Green

Lewes people like a leaflet or two. So many small businesses have notice boards so people can pin and post their little massage, reiki, yoga, singing, Spanish, crochet lessons etc etc flyers up. Its a booming black market. Maybe HMRC should call a few.
