I REFER to the letter from H F Perry of August 14. While not always agreeing with Sue Galloway when she was a councillor, I feel she did not deserve such a letter in response.

All she was doing was saying what many of us feel. Maybe Mr Perry doesn’t mind the rubbish strewn everywhere and the drunken hordes we have to put up with.

However, I do not agree about the floral displays as I believe York does well in this area. I visit another city and feel the same as Mrs Galloway, but I still prefer to live in York.
