And amen to that, Lynne. BTW, thank you for the agenda for this coming Wednesday's Council meeting (a 6.30pm start I note) and I take your point about the appointment of members (to a new Steering Group as I understand it). My view is that it is not incompatible to be a supporter of a fair deal for Richard Weeks and an advocate for more SANGS/ANGSt in Dawlish while at the same time accepting ...
38 degrees provides an independent platform for people to air their concerns - and to encourage support from others. To have provided the medium for almost 70 petitions would seem reason enough for many to trust its efficacy. The people 'behind' 38 degrees are the ordinary man and woman in the street. Insult 38 degrees and you insult them. From what you have written here (and in other discussions) ...
JC, perhaps the 38 degree informative below is one reason the person who started this petition did not used the government's e-petition site? As for your comment about local people concerned about over-development, I take it you do not share their view? Why not use the government's e-petitions site? There are plenty of good reasons to start a petition on Campaigns by You rather than ...
JC, SoulofDawlish (not my real name of course) is my Dawlish.com nom de plume and the name of a rather passionate bunch of local people who are concerned about over-development in Dawlish. SoD can also be found on the Twitter tag @SoulofDawlish - thank you for asking. As for adding your name twice to a petition, that is not something I would recommend even if you were particularly passionate ...
JC, I am of the view that the vast majority of those who have signed up to support Richard Weeks have done so in good faith. I am also certain that those who have positions of responsibility held on the basis of a mandate from the public will think likewise. I trust they will act accordingly. BTW, is Judith Chalmers your real name?
JC, if you have looked at the website you will have seen the success that 38 degrees has had with individual petitions to date. This one will be no different; it is the weight of public opinion behind the message that counts. Given that this fight to save Warren Farm is gaining around 1000 signatures a week it would be a particularly insensitive minister / councillor / local authority who would ...
Nothing on the 38 degrees website to suggest otherwise, Judith. So all anyone should need to do to help Richard is to fill in the provided name, email and postcode fields, sign up - and pass the message on!
Thank you Michael, you are a gent. It should be an interesting meeting!
2185 signatures... and still counting.
Other than the initial meeting to kick things off, I have not been informed of any further progress. I will enquire...
