@1263 I agree with everything you've just written. People are unlikely to vote for the Greens in great numbers in this by-election because of how Polanski is perceived and the 'looney' notion put out there by the tabloid press, etc.  Like I wrote elsewhere Dawlish has never voted Green, maybe things could change, the Town has never voted Reform either yet. But such a shift is unlikely. Its hard to ...

It appears there is a schism within the local Liberal Democrat party, a Teignmouth District Councillor Andrew Henderson has also ...

In my opinion, I would have a look at TRUST PILOT and look at the 1star reviews first, just saying.

I know some existing and prospective Councillors really do give a damn about the town. Perhaps the reason Wrigley held on to his District Councillor role was due to the 'gold-plate' changes that came into effect on 11th May; The Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) now provides pension benefits for councillors and mayors (referred to as ‘elected members’) in England from 11 May 2026. ...

Warren car boot back on

Since the Town Council elections in May 2023, 5 out of 16 Councillors have left their roles. No by-elections were held for the previous 4 vacancies,  most likely because the vacancies were not well publicized and the necessary 10 electors did not write to the Council to call for an election during the 14 day notice period. If voters in Dawlish SW would prefer a candidate from one of the other ...

@BOO HOO you raise some valid points. The same applies to the other Liberal Democrat Cllrs on the Town Council who are still/were employed at Wrigley's Constituency Office since the General Election almost two years ago. At one point they numbered 3. Opposition Councillors object to this situation as do members of the public who are made aware of it, hence the reaction in the comments of a couple ...

No point telling them about crime. They won't believe you, especially if you have a knife injury.

White Ford Transit....say no more.
