🔶️Councillor 4 Teignmouth, Chair of HITS Foodbank.
You weren't to know the terrible event that were to happen. There is no excuse for the comments of Newton Abbot South Devon County Councillor.

Not something a county councillor should say…

Only 1 principal council by-elections this week, carried out using the AV system. The Conservative result (falling to sixth, losing three-quarters of their vote share), is in part due to the by-election being caused by the previous Conservative councillor having been jailed for fraud & embezzlement!

Martin Wrigley MP visited today to see the damage that storm Ingrid had caused Teignmouth seafront and the Grand Pier. Martin is calling on government to help fund the clean up at Teignmouth and if there is any help that can be given to restore the Pier, notwithstanding it being privately owned.

It’s extraordinary how dramatically such potential has been squandered in just a few months, with pointless squabbles and arguments . It’s Corbyn and Sultana who need to accept the blame. Your Party will implode in few years time.

Come on Biffa - your dumpsters are taking over pavements in Teignmouth, blocking public bins and history boards, forcing wheelchair users and pushchairs into the road.
