Yes of course you have to show your passport. My point is that there may well be longer delays if, once we are no longer EU citizens, the passport control officers have to check out our passports that bit more. Still, us Brits love to queue ............
Temperatures today (source the i newspaper - cue response from a certain someone.......) Plymouth/Exeter/Bristol - 17/18 C Fair with outbreaks of rain Athens - 33 C and Sunny Barcelona - 30 C and Sunny Lisbon - 26 C and Sunny Madrid - 34 C and Sunny Nice - 27 C and Sunny Palma (Majorca) - 34 C and Sunny Rome - 30C and Sunny Tenerife - 26 C and Sunny
I think I said something about sunnier climes. A hot sunny period in this country is so unusual that it invariably becomes a news story. Why do I believe that such delays will increase after we leave the EU? - well, we won't be EU citizens for a start so going through passport control and customs won't necessarily be as easy as it is now, when going to EU countries. So if it is busy ...
This makes the 1hour and 50 minutes I was sat on a plane (it having missed its take off slot due to delays) at Bristol Airport the other week followed by the 1 hour sat on a plane at Palma de Mallorca airport when coming back pale into insignificance. And bear in mind that such delays are more than likely to increase when we have left the EU. ...
and below are the councillors who sit on the town council's Finance and General Purposes committee. F&GP met about 10 days ago to discuss, amongst other things, possible funding streams for the the building of the playpark. I have no idea which of the councillors below attended the meeting but if anyone reading this post wants to know the outcome of the committee's deliberations then ...
I see two faces in the picture shown in that link of people who are presently councillors. Recently elected Cllr Mawhood and elected wef 2011 (I think) Cllr Terry Lowther. Try them? I have no idea where either of them stand on the playpark issue. Or you could try the National Association of Local Councils http://www.nalc.gov.uk/contact-us
On page 72 of this week's Dawlish Post there are lots of public notices one of which states the following: Local Government Act 1972 Section 123 (1), (2A) Disposal of Interest in Open Space NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN under section 123 (2A) of the Local Government Act 1972 that Teignbridge Distict Council intends to dispose of an interest in two areas of open space at the ...
For those who are unhappy with what is being proposed you might find some recourse by way of a Parish Poll . I believe this is what was instigated when the saga of the proposed selling off of the Manor House was on the cards back in 2009/10. To find out more, just type in Parish Poll and hit the search button. Then it's over to you what you do (or not).
I have no strong feelings either way on this matter so when I say what I say below I am not saying it necessarily because I am on the 'we want a playpark on the lawn' team. A referendum was held. People had the choice to vote or not. Of those that voted the majority chose to have a playpark on a certain part of the lawn. The people have spoken. Some people don't like the ...
But the cabinet isn't saying we won't leave the EU. What the agreed line appears to be (and it seems that arch Brexiteers Johnson, Fox and Davies agree with this) is that it is in the country's interests for there to be a softer economic landing by way of leaving the EU completely over a period of time rather than leaving the EU completely on March 29th 2019. If you disagree with that ...
