I agree with all of those. Plus tidying up the Strand, though I think the Regeneration groups are working on this. Theres a series on BBC Breakfast TV about how coastal towns are moving away from their 50s and 60s past - councillors should watch and learn.
You are slightly missing the point in that a lot of people on this site think its OK to not clean up after their dog. Its the justification of the irresponsibilty that is so awful. If I was Wally Protheroe I would mount a massive publicity campaign via the local press, put more poop bins and signs around and use the neighbour watch scheme to keep an eye on dog walkers. Yes, put up council tax and ...
'Not saying that's ethical - but you can't hire tons of dog wardens in DW unless you are prepared to pay much higher council taxes' But we wouldn't NEED dog wardens if owners were responsible. Whats the matter with you people?
Your post does not equate with the facts. I am not interested in 'rumour' but in fact. The type of ecoli she died from came from DOG crap. Yes I'd like to enjoy myself too - but its hard when I'm having to watch out for dog crap because of lazy ***** who can't be bothered to clean up after their dogs. STOP FINDING EXCUSES FOR THESE PEOPLE!
'She had been infected with E.coli 0157 - a bacteria which has only been recognised for a decade, and about which very little is known. However, it is known that it can only be contracted by ingesting infected excrement.' That seems to be pretty conclusive to me. You say that realistically noone is going to clean up after their dog on the beach. If there was a hefty on the spot fine they would. ...

Actually its Richard YOUNGER Ross. What a ridiculous name. But the bloke seems ok to me. Yeh Dawlish is Conservative all right. UKIP even. Not everyone though.
Its like saying 'eat up your brussel sprouts because of the starving millions' isn't it? Just as illogical and irrelevant. Sorry Nick, not clearing up after your dog is irresponsible, lazy and disgusting. And illegal. It kinds of spoils the view when you can smell dogsh*t. And there's a three year old kid who will never enjoy Dawlish Warren beach again, because she is dead as a result of ecoli ...
Its Richard Taylor Ross, Lib Dem. Blimey, don't you know that?
You're just a troll. I'd like to agree that some OAPS are very rude - has anyone else had the experience of being pushed out of the way by one? The words 'excuse me' don't seem to be part of their vocabulary. And they go on about the 'youth' of today....
