Devon and Somerset Devolution: would you buy a used car from these people?

DID YOU SPOT THE ELEPHANTS IN THE ROOM?

No members of the business- and developer-heavy Local Enterprise Partnership in the video – particularly the LEP Chairman, who is Chairman of Midas house builders and the half-dozen with vested interests in nuclear power and those University chiefs who want to ensure they get all the money for skills and training! Together THEY make up the majority of the Board taking decisions, NOT councillors.

And that LOVELY bit from Diviani about other councillors getting a chance to comment AFTER this loathsome group has created its “blueprint” for devolution in its own image.

    • I seem to remember a mantra that went, “No taxation without representation.” Surely any group that receives and distributes the public purse must be subject to the scrutiny of the electors, and the control of their elected representatives. Or is Brexit the abandoning of control rather than getting it back? Perhaps Mr Gove should enlighten us?
