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.

Can't tell you how happy I am for all of you who have worked so hard and carry the hopes not only of Seaton but also of those of us on the fringes. Crack open the champayne. Today Seaton, tomorrow the world (I wish)

Well done, everyone.
A clear mandate from those who voted for Seaton.
I hope the turnout of 57% sends a clear message to all.

You have to put how long you want to put it at the top of the site - I chose 14 May so we could be sure everyone sees it. After 14 May it will slip down the page.
