General Discussion

Meeting this Tuesday (12th Feb) at Dawlish Community College "Does Dawlish Need a New Supermarket and, if so, where?".

7- 8.45pm

All welcome

Did anyone go to the meeting last night?
I was unable to get there.

Yes - it was very well attended. Very good meeting and I think all would agree with that wherever they stand on the supermarket issue.

All very quiet..any detail to report and does the MP support it?

As far as I am aware MP doesn't think Dawlish should have a supermarket. He called meeting not for him to express his opinion but so that others could express theirs and that there could be exchanges of these opinions.

I'd say about 150/200 there. I'd say 50/50 for/against supermarket.

He is trying to get town wide poll done.

Suggest you contact him direct for further info on his personal stance and on town wide poll.

Thank you! .. at least things have calmed a bit.

That's because it wasn't the Tesco/Sandy Lane issue specifically!

Vitually everyone there agreed that building a supermarket at Sandy Lane is one BIG NO!

Why doesn't the MP want Dawlish to have a supermarket? Is it that he doesn't live in Dawlish? or perhaps on his large salary he can afford Harrods to deliver to his door.....

He has to please small shop owners and those who do want a Supermarket and those that do'nt.
An impossible task.
BTW do try and be nice!

who's BTW??

by the way!
