Stand Up For Seaton (SU4S)

Community Action for Seaton's Regeneration Area, 80% owned by Tesco - a floodplain on a World Heritage site bordered by nature reserves, tidal river, the sea and the unspoilt town. SU4S is a state of mind - no members, no structure, no politics. SU4S has objected to 2 planning applications by Tesco, including one for a massive superstore/dot com distribution centre which led to the recent closure on the site of 400 tourist beds with the loss of 150 jobs,a gym and pool - all used by locals.

Goodbye from a few of us - perhaps

These will be the last blog entries today for those of us who are lucky enough to get on the council. Should we be successful we will have to ensure that we are not partisan and so will not be able to partake of this blog. This does not stop us being independent Stand Up For Seaton councillors but we will ensure that there are no grey areas about what we are involved in (perhaps that is the source of the latest odd rumour - see below?).

The blog will be run by others (NOT on the council, of ocurse) who will carry on its work as they see fit.

We have no way of knowing which of us will be elected, so we can't say for certain who will have to leave but, rest assured, we shall all be keeping beady eyes on everything that goes on in the town!

And - no, being independents on the council does NOT stop us from speaking - sorry! If so, all independents and all single issue councillors would have to leave councils all over the country! Just remember, there is even a single issue, independent MP in Parliament!

Yes, that MP is a retired GP (for Wyre Forest) and got voted in at the last but one general election. That was on a single issue of the closure of Kidderminster hospital, but he’s done a good job on a range of issues, and got re-elected last time.

You really must make it clear that no teddy bears were harmed during the capture of this image! At least one of our supporters could be an ex-supporter if you don't do this!

The results are in. I demand you reprieve (or revive) the teddy bear!

It's Ok, we've cut him down, we have a new job for him.

Update on the last post I made.
I've now removed the image completely, my apologies to those upset by its connotations, this was not my intention at all.
