The return of reality speak

Yo dudes! Checking the traffic stats after 3 years some people are still watching....probably more than who got votes at the last council election and probably making sure we don't open fire again, telling real tales rather than puff & spin (a sort of EDDC Rock'n'Roll, now we've been and worn the t-shirt we can say that with qualification and no "you musn't say that" from people ironically, holding onto the very talking stick they didn't want us to have!) So yay, we might be back, if only to point out that not everything the Devon/East Devon spinmeisters would have published is true. We're opening up the comments section in the next week, this is going to be a free-4-all so Seaton's real voice can have a piece of each other if they're man/woman/other enough to type it, we ain't gonna be the target this time mr party f political, you can argue with each other... Those that want back in, you know where we are, we'll take the lid back off and this time, let the worms squirm. Meanwhile, a little light relief from the excellent Mercedes Benson....

Not that there's any chance of Seaton being on the list, actually, NO East Devon Beach is listed.

No, we should appear on the "Big Marsh Top 100", "British Land Developers Top 10Stitch-Ups" or even "Top Seaside location with most shafted businesses and residents" lists, you get the picture, I'm sure you can make up your own.

Selling Seaton by the Pound

Lovely article in the Guardian.

Vote Against Greed

from the article:-
Mr Howell said he knew the posters were up in homes across England.

"In Cornwall, in Southampton, in Sidmouth, in Reading, in London, in Bristol, in Sheffield. I know of those because people in the village have already told me they've told their friends and got them to put them up."

Given the sudden interest of some places to rip off
manage Seaton for us (think parking charges here), you might very well need to be aware of this. EDDC currently don't appear on the list, but everybody is looking to their financial positions right now.
