General Discussion
@MarkyT - re your comments about rail line and Exeter Airport. New Town, Cranbrook, presently being built very close to Exeter Airport. Cranbrook is scheduled to have a railway station - on the Exeter/Waterloo line. Due to open 2015.
@Brooklyn Bridge - no-one's making you read it.
Totally agree with you Clive. It's what I've been getting at all along.
I was wondering who is paying for all this and how much it is costing 'em. Dunno about anyone else but this is the second lot of post from the Conservatives that has come through my door in as many months. Are these letters going out to all aged 17+ in the constituency? And then don't forget there is a reply paid envelope enclosed with each questionnaire sent out. So where's the dosh coming ...
Welcome Marky T to this website. Have you sent your proposals to NR or any other 'power that be' decision maker?
I've been waiting for the UKIPers who post on here to point out that Britain apparently contributes some £50m per day to the EU. http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/2011/11/24/britain-paying-eu-50m-a-day_n_1111498.html and then to point out how much all this money that goes to the EU could be used in this country on other things - like on infrastructure.

I think there will also be an upswing in UKIP votes in this constituency in 2015 as well as in other constituencies in the south west. However, although some of these UKIP votes will, I believe, come from Labour supporters not all Labour supporters ...
Look, if the south west can't get dosh out of central government when it is a Lib Dem/Conservative coalition it never will do. How many Labour seats are there max in the south west - 4/5? (1 x at Exeter, 2x at Plymouth?, 2x in Cornwall on a good day?). All the other south west constituencies are fought out between the Lib Dems and the Conservatives. If I remember correctly Anne Marie Morris won by ...
a quote from that link I've given above; One senior government figure said of the infrastructure spending plans: "George Osborne is going to be looking for ways of helping our people – that does not mean people who might vote Conservative but Conservative MPs in marginal seats. It is not necessarily things that will have Tory MPs excited ideologically. It is more about things that are going ...
It says "organised by Visit Devon" in the second sentence of the opening paragrah.
