I think he has a point. How can we 'vet' who is coming into this country when we don't even know who is coming into the country?

Not many straight answers then Lynne, lol

Yes I nearly choked last night at the Hustings when she said that it twas she who had pressed David Cameron to prioritise getting the rail line fixed! In fact this is what she says in her latest election communication "The Dawlish railway line was repaired in record time after I put pressure on the PM to take action". Oh really? I think the point Roberta makes about the communication cable is ...

Walking along the sea wall at Dawlish yesterday. Spoke with the guard on sentry duty who advised that due to strong sea's during the last section of construction of the path/wall. It may not be completed until June/July. Anyone have any other info when it might be completed. Just want to walk on the old section of beach. Closed Feb 2014 will open when?

It is not just the rogue traders who are criminally at fault, it is also some of the people that hire and inadvertently encourage them. My neighbour paid £300.00 to have a few small limbs chainsawed from a eucalypt two weeks ago. The chap who did it (with an Irish accent) was there for an hour, used no safety equipment, just a ladder and a chainsaw, when he was 20 feet from the ground. Cash paid ...

A fellow Scientologist perhaps?

Yes dragons would be interesting!

Thanks for posting this Lynne. Sunday 31st May is shaping up to be a good day. This all came about because Vintage buses are running between Teighnouth, Dawlish and Dawlish Warren on the day and we wanted to put some events on in Dawlish to entice people off the buses. There are events planned for the lawn as well as the Vintage bike ride. Val Mawhood has led on the Great Storm event and we plan ...

Dawlish crash woman taken to hospital. A WOMAN has been taken to hospital with leg injuries after a crash in Dawlish Warren. The emergency services were called to Shutterton Lane at 10am on Monday to reports of a two-vehicle collision. When they arrived they found an Audi A1 and a Daihatsu 4x4 had collided. A fire crew from Dawlish was sent and confirmed nobody was trapped. They made the vehicles ...

A HOMELESS man who was in a desperate state stole meat from the Co-op to feed himself as he had not eaten days, a court has been told. Steven Heap, 48, was caught on CCTV taking meat from Co-op stores in Teignmouth and Dawlish in January this year. Heap, who now lives in Richards Close, Dawlish, pleaded guilty to two counts of theft from a shop when he appeared at Torquay Magistrates' Court on ...

What the hell is happening to our town? It's okay though - they both had traumatic childhoods.

Tomorrow - Sunday 26th April Dawlish United under 13 girls are playing in their first ever Cup Final. The game kicks off at 10:30am on the mini-soccer pitch next to Dawlish Leisure Centre. The girls would love support from the Dawlish Locals so why not come and cheer them on

No

As I sadly I lost my dog back last summer I have not needed to walk around the Elm Grove Woods/James's Plantation (as was) for quite some time. So I really noticed the difference when I walked that way a few days back.

Ive just seen Dartline go past already

Hi Michael. Thanks for that.

Thanks Ziggy for some reason I was having trouble posting the link

Here's last night's edition https://www.itv.com/itvplayer/newzoids

The missing person Mr Gary Knight has been found safe and well and is now back in Dawlish.

I've now received the Conservative leaflet for the town elections, and it makes some interesting promises that will be difficult to keep without greater support from Teignbridge. They want to improve the Lawn - Hoorah.  District Cllr Stuart Barker came to the town council in February 2012 and promised us improvements.  Mention was made of £1 million investment in the town centre, if the grants ...

I like being able to speak my mind Huw which is why,amongst other reasons, I'll never stand for election to any council. Be elected and then find myself gagged by pecuniary interests and/or predetermination of planning applications and goodness knows what other rules and regulations? No Thanks.

RIP Col. Richard. We will remember them.

At least Jeremy Ebdon has moved from TDC Planning so it won't go through on a stroke of a pen on 'Delegated Decision' as did the Ashcombe/Colley Lane 50 acre Solar Farm!!

Sorry, I misread it in the first place for Lowther, Petherick and Petherick.  You were right to be confused.

Anything happen? No. I know the EA have to put their umbrella up and warn people that something 'might' happen. The problem is that insurance companies are grabbing this and charging exorbitant rates for flood insurance in areas that, up to now, have never flooded. The way of today's world I suppose!

and here's their 2015 manifesto http://www.loonyparty.com/5213/4721/loony-party-manicfesto-2015/

@Lynne No one seems to be answering your question so I might as well have a go. You don't want a Tory MP so your choices are pretty stark really. I agree that a Labour candidate won't get elected in this constituency. The LibDems are going to face a massive backlash due to their coalition with the Tories so they aren't going to get in either. Greens? Not a hope in hell with Natalie Bennett at the ...

More to the point Webmaster look at who reported it in the first place.  They're as much of your problem as Mrs C.

we gave him short thrift last night, never ever will I vote tory even more now with the hated right to buy being resurrected to take in HA. vile cretins
