Devoncast – Planning controversies, council rejigs and lessons from a by-election

This weke’s Devoncast delves into planning and housing issues, NIMBY-ism, the cost of social housing and the ongoing process of local government reorganisation. We’re joined by Independent councillor Ian Barlow, who represents Sidmouth on East Devon District Council, and hear too from Newton Abbot MP Martin Wrigley. Also in this edition of Devoncast, we ask whether the result of a by-election in East Devon could provide any insight about the potential outcome of the Devon County Council elections in May.
