In my opinion, £15 billion is just the tip of the iceberg of government spending on this issue and primarily it is being spent on ILLEGAL and undocumented immigrants who have arrived, thanks to the British authorities and the R.N.L.I, from France. As such they have NO legal rights to request asylum and should be sent directly back to France. Preferably without touching our shores in the first ...

Shame the Dawlish council cannot do the same for the rest of what is left of Dawlish, but I suppose as long as the manor House and close surrounding area is ok, who cares about the rest of Dawlish spiralling down the drain. I pay over £3,000 a year on rates and for that I get my bins emptied, wow what a bargain.

Turn The Tide is a not for profit organisation run by volunteers who aim to make Dawlish the most climate and nature aware coastal town. Dawlish, the town that had how many tons of concrete poured over the last few years for a new sea wall!!! Well it is over 24,000 tons of concrete, not very climate friendly. Also how many new build houses have been built! thousands, again not very climate ...

@sarahkhan - I would not hold your breath over the council doing anything based on their track record, in my opinion.

@Dawlish Against Censorship - well put.

Cops actually doing their job, no- I don't believe it!!!!!!!!!!

The only people helping the smaller political parties to get more votes is the Liebour and Cons party in my opinion. Reform would not exist if we had governments that were true to their word, but again they are politicians so we should always expect the opposite of what they say in my opinion.

Believe that and you will believe anything in my opinion.

I assume the teenager was using their mental age to justify using the equipment, but lacked the mental acuity to realise that their physical size would cause an issue on extraction when finished playing on the swing. SIMPLE IS AS SIMPLE DOES. At least he was not setting fire to the equipment, that has to be a bonus these days with these super low intelligent teen's being breed the last few ...

What is it 7p or 7.5p! big difference on 1945 wages.

As others have said, in my opinion, they have pointed out in their promotion all the things that are actually damaging the economy and people's state of mind and living standards. Nothing they say inspires me to rally for them but quite the opposite.

Bet the sniffer dogs were mellow as fock after those outings to the pubs.

Poor old Dawlish just does not get a break. First it was no more air shows then years of  reinforcing the sea wall for the railway because of decades of lack of maintenance by the company and now The Lawn being ripped apart this Summer for poop storage and to boot the motorcycle show that has been such a success the last two years go to Teignmouth ffs.

Oh no not young people getting together and having a good time, how dare they. What a focking country we have turned into, a complete nanny state. Glad I was a kid in the 60's and 70's and could do just what I wanted without government overwatch.

@1263 Well said.

@Daverc - no apology required. Are there no services through the g.p's/NHS that could possibly help you to get out and about?

In my opinion all that Stalin Starmer has done is take over the purse strings for the multibillion £ budget the NHS waste every year. I assume so that he can now do the same but with even more vigour. Presumably to bring it to its knees in preparation for privatisation just  like he is doing with the economy, again in my opinion.

Have the developers paid back the money that Teignbridge lent them for this bridge saga yet!

COLLINS DEFINITION OF POLICING - the actions of a person or group in authority in order to ensure fairness and legality in an area of public life. Sadly, in my opinion, the days of a police officer actually performing their duties to the public as set forth by the oath they took during their attestation have long since gone. I (name) ...of (address)... do solemnly and sincerely declare and affirm ...

Ukraine and foreign aid plus the cost of hotels, etc for the illegal migrants from France. I suppose you could also add the ppe contract scandal, the failed covid tracker app and the temp hospitals plus the current and future contracts for mRNA vaccines to name just a few eating up tens of billions of hard earned tax payers money. Then you could add HS2, the myriad of carbon zero schemes to siphon ...

£4.9m government grant in other words taxpayers money to fix a problem that should have been resolved at the planning stage rather than after hundreds of homes had already been built!

In my opinion the U.K. Government, and the way they have treated this country and its citizens over the past 5 years or more, can be classified as a domestic terrorist organisation if you use the governments own definition of terrorism under the Terrorism Act 2006:- Introduction The Terrorism Act 2006 uses the definition of terrorism contained in the Terrorism Act 2000. Section 34 amends that ...

YOU WILL OWN NOTHING AND YOU WILL BE HAPPY. I agree with the first but certainly do not agree with the second. £3060 for the year and generously allowed to pay over ten months at £306 a month how kind of them. Democracy the gift that keeps on giving to those in power. What a twist that we, the masses, actually are given the opportunity to vote for one bunch of parasitic, compulsive liars or ...

@expat - most probably the daily evening drug run.

Looking on companies house:- This may be the company that bought the property https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/08720546/filing-history Hopefully the property can be brought back to its former glory.

Forget the £22 billion phantom black hole. Some focus ought to be put on the National debt that, with pensions deficits included, is at an eye watering {estimated} £4.5 to £5 TRILLION.

How about a MODEST increase in services to go with the modest increase in payment, cheeky so and so's. How about a few redundancies from the council as most of the services are non existent or gone all together!

It is about time that government officials paid into their pension funds just the same as the private sector workers do and did not get top ups from the tax payers.

Teignbridge Council budget and financial plan 2024 - 2025:- Teignbridge District Council Council 27 February 2024 Recommendation(s) • Assumptions of a 4.0% pay rise for 2024/25 • A payment of £1,000,000 to reduce the pension deficit I wonder what will be in the 2025 - 2026 plan!

Just happened to notice in the Barton Hill Car Park Dawlish Rural skip service Bulky general waste and small and large domestic. Complete list of what they will take is below:- DAWLISH.GOV.UK/DAWLISH-RURAL-SKIP-SERVICE-3/ Dawlish Rural Skip Services Dawlish Skip Service 2025 There will be 4 Skip Services in 2025 on the following dates: – Saturday 25th January- Barton Hill Car Park – Saturday 22nd ...

How about keep the counter open and reduce the pay of the manager and supervisors instead!

What a refreshing change in this era of the elites of the WEF trying to destabilise and destroy western society to have the citizens of a country actually able to vote a leader into power that will fight these corrupt and duplicitous pieces of scum. I fear it will be sometime before we in the UK can have a leader who will actually put the citizens and the country first over illegal immigrants and ...

How about having a police officer who actually walked a beat around Dawlish and got to know what is actually going on. Rather than wasting time talking to the town councillors who seem rather remote from the issues many people are having in Dawlish, in my opinion.

R.I.P. Peter Lynch, shame on the Labour Party and Stalin 'two tier, free gear' Starmer in my opinion.

When I was a kid back in the 1960's winter was cold, but these days you would think Britain had been moved to the Artic Circle if you listen to all the scare mongering that comes from the government and media outlets. No central heating or double glazing in our house back then. One thing I did enjoy as a kid back then was thick snow and the freshly delivered milk freezing and pushing the cream out ...

Popped down to the CO-OP in Dawlish on the 03rd Jan 2025 to pick up some nibbles. Noticed every freezer was empty and the reason was that all the freezers stopped working at the same time. I understand the CO-OP's legal issues over not giving the frozen (or not so frozen) to anyone that wants it, but it still makes me sad how wasteful it was to just throw it all in the skip, and it was a heck of a ...

Got a Tile that has slipped out of place, needs pushing back.

I had a very unpleasant ASB issue with a local family that went on for years 10 years actually and I called the police on many occasions as the incidents unfolded over the years. I would sum up the response by the police as pretty poor to bordering on not interested. I have had other times I have called the police on 101 and had to wait, one time I called  re an incident and waited 1 hour and 45 ...
