Has there been a worse administration in the history of City of York Council ?

Their blatant refusal to listen to council taxpayers’ opinions on everything from the sale of Union Terrace car park to the closure of recycling centres; the horrors of street-lighting; the removal of litter and dog-waste bins; the felling of a tree thanks to the Mystery Plays; and now the proposal to charge residents for the removal of green waste. It just goes on and on, and then on some more.

The management of a beautiful city, one where many aspire to live, cannot take much more.
