No wonder they wanted to keep the numbers under wraps until after district council elections in May!
And just where will we put these homes? And will this number be increased by 20% because we have no 5-6 year land supply?
The press release and consultants’ reports are here:
Hugo Swire 1/6
Claire Wright 9/2 !!!!
UKIP 18/1
LibDems 40/1
Labour 100/1
Definitely not good news (again) for Hugo.
Remember: bet responsibly and be over 18.

There are some really daft things going on prior to this General Election, for example Greenpeace, which wants politicians of ALL parties to hear its views has been banned from Sutton Harbour in Plymouth for being “too political” whereas UKIP, which also plans to be there, has been allowed:
But it isn’t quite as daft as calling housing figures in a draft local plan “politically sensitive” as EDDC just did. Still, a sensible Planning Inspector put them right and they are due out this week.
Watch this space.
“A large number of part-time women are moving in to sectors like social care and cleaning where wages are low and contracts are often insecure.
“Unless we create better-paid part-time and flexible work opportunities, far too few women will see any real benefit from the recovery.”
