By Debbie Flint | 17 December 2020 | 12 comments

Neil O’Brien: Introducing the new Levelling Up Taskforce – and its first report on how we can measure progress

So how do we get more good, high-paying jobs into poorer areas? One specific opportunity relevant in a lot of Red Wall seats is advanced manufacturing.

By Neil O Brien MP | 7 September 2020 | 61 comments

Alison Hernandez: We have a moral duty to accept the lockdown guidance

I support our robust policing in Devon and Cornwall. We have one of the lowest rates of infection and want to keep it that way.

By Alison Hernandez | 29 April 2020 | 82 comments

Selaine Saxby: In North Devon, there is great concern about traffic congestion on local roads

Local hotels, restaurants, and tourist attractions would all benefit from a cut in VAT. This is something that we can seriously look at once we have left the EU.

Daniel Brown: More young people should offer to be councillors

I understand how public service can be a daunting prospect. But it can be one of the most rewarding moves you ever make.

By Daniel Brown | 27 September 2019 | 44 comments

Gareth Streeter: An intelligent spending review could halt the Liberal Democrats in their tracks in the South West

By Gareth B Streeter | 12 September 2019 | 97 comments

By Harry Phibbs | 17 May 2019 | 12 comments

Local elections 3) The contest with the Lib Dems – their revival has come far more at the expense of the Conservatives than of Labour

Local elections: The Conservative/Lib Dem battlegrounds

Could the Yellow Party take control of Lewes, St Albans, Winchester, Teignbridge, Guildford – even Wokingham?

By Harry Phibbs | 30 April 2019 | 20 comments

James Hellyer: In Devon, the Conservatives have worked out how to win

In by-elections where we put out leaflet after leaflet, but didn’t talk to anyone, we lost. Where we used survey canvassing, using a 0-10 model, we either won or advanced.

By James Hellyer | 22 November 2018 | 13 comments

Alison Hernandez: Fighting crime in Devon and Cornwall

My force estimates that dealing with mentally unwell people takes around 40 per cent of officer time. If we can get people the help they need this frees up officers to deal with those who choose to break the law.

By Alison Hernandez | 25 October 2018 | 7 comments

South Hams Council’s “betrayal” as opportunity for beautiful homes is abandoned

This act of sabotage can only undermine the public trust that is needed to increase the housing supply.

By Harry Phibbs | 7 August 2017 | 23 comments

Reform must be phased, to allow farmers to adapt, but it will pay dividends.

By Warwick Lightfoot | 1 August 2017 | 85 comments

The Government has heard the message, and is dropping the mayoral requirement for rural counties seeking increased devolved power.

By Andrew Laird | 28 May 2017 | 36 comments
