Teignbridge Rotten Borough
@1263 Yes, it's pretty feudal. Maybe a Director or two does an hour here or there, but judging from the website the sessions are predominantly delivered by unpaid workers. They don't even pay the Ukrainian translator who's an 'ad-hoc' volunteer, that's a highly skilled role. https://rootscommunityenhancement.org/about-us Nowadays the core work of charities and social entreprises ...
Dawlish News (MId Devon Advertiser) can't even get the basics right. Roots Community Enhancement is not a charity. It is a 'social' entreprise, a Community Interest Company (CIC) Company number 11375189 It relies on unpaid workers (volunteers) to deliver just over 4 hours of provision weekly plus just under 3 hours additional hours one day a month. In 2022/23 around 70% of ...
Teignbridge District Council aren't bothered by what most of us know is illegal. Just look at how the Lib Dem run Council breached an opposition Councillor's human rights over a 3 year period, spending thousands of taxpayers rates on a sham investigation that should never have been initiated - simply because this Councillor dare oppose their dodgy handling of planning. The Local Government ...
There's no difference betweenthe Conservatives, Labour and the Liberal Democrats, ideologically we live in a one-party state. It's Neoliberalist whichever candidate you vote for; they're all puppets of corporate interest and the establishment. We need politicians with integrity, backbone and leadership attributes; who stand up for local people struggling to make ends meet and who put our ...
If anyone on here wishes to 'engage' in the topic in the OP. Namely, Local Rag shamelessly regurgitates Liberal Democrat Spin and Misinformation... then I'm all for open disussion. The Lib Dem Facebook page in question can be viewed without being a facebook user as can any Facebook page.
@Lynne The paper's political slant is self-evident to anyone who reads it and takes an interest in politics and recognizes balanced journalism or lack of. Tindle Newspaper group existes to serve a certain section of society, hardley surprising seeing as Sir Ray was knighted. For anyone reading this, from experience there is little to no point writing a letter of compalint to this ...
@Lynne There are no Labour Councillors at District or County level in Newton Abbot Constitiuency or the wider Teignbride District. There are very few Labour Town Councilors in Newton Abbot Constitiuency or the wider Teignbride District either. This is the standard question fielded by Liberal Democrats Councillors when it comes to the General Election and can be found on Lib Dem ...
Liberal Democrat Dawlish Councillor and Leader of Teignbridge District Council, Martin Wrigley once again makes an awkward appearance on BBC Spotlight over the controversial changes to Queen St, Newton Abbot. Changes that his party and the Conservatives desperately want to push through; despite widespread opposition from local traders and residents, despite the absence of any truly democratic ...
Mid Devon Advertiser/Dawlish Gazette informs us that 'Labour opt out of Teignbridge as a general election battleground' Surely a professionally qualified journalist would verify whether this 'interpretation' holds any water by checking with, say the local Labour party itself - and presenting their side of the story for balance. This is just a rehashing of a post from the Lib Dem's Teignmouth ...
