Exeter City Council leader Phil BIalyk joins us on Devoncast this week to talk about the cut and thrust of politics, the future of potential property changes and development sites, and, a possible ambition for the city’s buses.
Plus, residents in Sampford Peverell and Uplowman in Mid Devon banded together to form a major opposition to a proposed landfill site near their homes, with their action contributing to the scheme being unanimously rejected by planners..
And we hear from two of the county’s Liberal Democrat MPs, Martin Wrigley (Newton Abbot) and Ian Roome (North Devon) who have both given their maiden speeches in Parliament, highlighting the key issues in their respective constituencies.
It’s all in the latest edition of Devoncast, from Radio Exe and the Local Democracy Reporting Service.
