Welcome to our world Cranbrook, now “flavour of the month” has worn off, where it doesn’t matter diddly-squat what you think or what you want – where “consultation” is pointless and where your district councillors and officers ride rough-shod over you.

But we can be fairly certain that travellers won’t be sited in Whimple!
