“Claire Wright, the Independent candidate for East Devon in the General Election, will be in Exmouth twice in the next few days. On Saturday, 14th February, she will be at street meetings at Exmouth, Brixington and Lympstone and a public meeting in Exmouth has been planned for Tuesday 17th February. Everyone is invited to this free meeting which will be held at Franklins, 54 The Strand, Exmouth EX8 1BR. It will begin at 7.00 pm.
This is the second in a series of public meetings which her campaign team has planned across the entire constituency. The next will be at Matthews Hall, Fore Street, Topsham EX3 0HF on Tuesday 3rd March and will begin at 7.00 pm.
After a short speech, there will be an opportunity for questions and discussion.
Claire, who has always lived in this area, launched her manifesto in Exmouth recently. She will explain how the results of her comprehensive survey, completed by many hundreds of local people, have revealed the concerns of the voters of East Devon. Additionally, more than a thousand conversations with local people and many visits to local businesses, as well as her experience as a town, district and county councillor, mean that the candidate is very familiar with the constituency and its problems. Indeed, it was the enthusiastic and extensive support in her successful bid for a seat on Devon County Council that prompted her to run for Parliament. Claire Wright will say how, if elected, she would be an active and energetic MP, working for the constituency.
On Saturday 14th February, Claire will be at street meetings in Exmouth and area. The first, at the Exeter Road shops in Exmouth, will begin at 10.00 am. The next stop, at about 11.15, will be at the row of shops in Brixington and the final session will be at Lympstone beginning at about 12.30. The venue will be by the railway bridge.”
