Devon and Somerset are conspicuous by their absence here. West Somerset has the lowest levels of social mobility in the country while Tiverton has to wait indefinitely for a new link road to be fully completed.
The South West has been taken for granted for far too long... 👇

I take issue with the phrase 'moderate' to describe Cameron. He was an architect of austerity and public service reforms, driven by the dogma to curtail the role of the state.
This was ideologically harmonious with the

For moderate, centrist, socially liberal, fiscal conservatives like me, today is a very good day. Out with the appalling Suella, in with someone with experience, political heft and respect. A big welcome back to
