Once again we have Councillor Sara Randall Johnson going on about the disadvantages of having a unitary council, and that EDDC will be taking legal advice to oppose this absurd idea.
Who will be paying for this advice?
She appears to be the only councillor who is publicly campaigning against this proposal.
The other week I attended Honiton Town Council open meeting with the new chief executive of Devon County Council in attendance.

At the last local elections, I believe She said, if elected, she would be there for the people of Honiton.
