That most dangerous of things: “a group of Sidmouth residents”! Are you sure?

Leaving aside whether “a group of Sidmouth residents” is the most dangerous thing on the planet (actually, the perpetrator of that remark may well be right!) it is how members of East Devon Alliance have been (oh-so-very-wrongly) described by Councillor Andrew Moulding, we have but one comment to make on his remark.

Why is Seaton resident and Conservative (and formerly a Lib Dem) councillor Stephanie Jones standing with Andrew Moulding in Axminster so that a Honiton resident Jenni Brown (whose address is the Monkton Court Hotel, Honiton) with no obvious connection to Seaton can stand in Seaton?

And where another candidate who is standing against former Tory Bob Buxton in Dunkeswell also lives (Colin Brown):

You may be able to ask them both as the Monkton Court Hotel:

Colin, Jenny and Joe are serving morning coffee, bar snacks, comfort food and afternoon tea. Come and relax in front of the fires or chill out in the sunny orchard -umbrellas can be supplied if necessary!

will be a polling station on election day:

And it has been the venue for a number of EDDC and local Tory events such as the Tiverton and Honiton Conservative Association Pie and Pudding Club:

Of course, anyone who fulfils the criteria in East Devon can stand anywhere in the district but it does seem a bit like musical-chair Tories – or perhaps pass the parcel would be a better description!

One thought on “That most dangerous of things: “a group of Sidmouth residents”! Are you sure?

  1. Is it allowed to use the home and business premises of two candidates as a polling station?
