General Discussion
Yes, I agree that accommodation offered at the Warrren is, on the whole, at the cheaper end of the market. So, if money is tight, and people further up country are losing their jobs then even if they come here they aren't going to have that much money to spend are they, or, as much money as they did have. My nephew, his partner, and their two year old are coming down shortly to stay at one of the ...
@Andy Mac & j.warrener I was trying to figure out what J.Warrener was getting at. Thought first of all s/he was talking about the District elections then realised that s/he was talking about the parish elections. I was further confused (as my postings show) by the term IVFD. So, you are both correct. I will not apologise. Why should I apologise for trying to work out what someone is referring ...
Apology? For what?
Doh! Got it now. IVFD = Independent Voice for Dawlish Right......so if it is two definite IVFD candidates being returned (one each in N.East Ward and S. West Ward) then the next question to ask is how to increase on that number? Tactical voting that's how. If you want to increase the possibility of having as many IVFD candidates returned as possible then only vote for the IVFD candidates and no ...
As I said, why not make your experience public via the press? I appreciate you might not want to 'go public' but that sounds just like the type of story they might be interested in and you never know, it might result in some reaction from those you mention above. I just feel that if people don't make a public fuss about what is going on/ what their situation is then the powers that be just ...
I'm not saying they would make an effort, not saying that at all. My reason for contacting them both is to make sure that they know my thoughts on various matters. Would hate for them to think that what the government/Devon County Council is doing on many things as well as educational matters is okay with me - cos it ain't! Why not a letter to the local press then? Along the lines of your ...
They *might* have spare cash but there again they equally might not. Remember we have inflation at 4.5% or so, VAT at 20% and a cutback in benefits which those at the lower end of the socio-economic food chain will sorely miss - and that includes those who are working. So, any extra earned income by those already in work may well be needed for necessities and thus won't be 'spare'. The same goes ...
Well now, it will be interesting to see just how much 'spare' cash families will have during this financial year. Remember, many will be losing their jobs. And I strongly suspect that even those that keep theirs will, on the whole, find they have less money to 'spare'.
Think you must be talking about the parish (town) council elections not those for Teignbridge District Council. Still don't know what you mean by IVFD. Please enlighten me (and others). 3 x wards for the Dawlish Town (Parish) Elections Central Ward - has 13 candidates contesting 6 vacancies North East Ward - has 6 candidates contesting 4 vacancies South West Ward - has 8 candidates contesting ...
What does IVFD stand for? And I don't know where you are getting your figures from re the wards. I've just checked again and according to TDC's website it is as I originally said: Dawlish Central & North East Ward - 8 candidates contesting 3 seats Dawlish South West Ward - 6 candidates contesting 2 seats.
