I have some catching up to do. What has John Clatworthy done for Dawlish apart from being very, very instrumental into forcing Dawlish into having on-street parking meters. I also noticed he was voiciferous about putting down double Yellow lines somewhere in Priory Road, when all that needed to happen was the police to issue an obstruction notice (or better known to most as a fixed penalty) to ...

@Gary Taylor well surely if Cllr Clatworthy is a good sport as you wrote, then why wouldn't he take the outcome of the election with good grace? You need to clarify which senior Conservative council members have lacked grace on Cllr Clatworthy's behalf. How on earth can you lack grace on behalf of another person?
