“Over-development of Exeter and Surrounding Area:
The voters of Alphington and Pinhoe are waking up to the fact that there are plans for huge developments in their neighbourhoods, mainly just outside of the current City boundaries.
Combined with the Cranbrook development, and the ever expanding Exeter University, this overdevelopment of Exeter and its surrounding area is and will undoubtedly adversely affect all Exonians’ quality of life, with extra traffic, pollution, fewer school places, competition for jobs, pressure on hospital beds, loss of green space etc. etc.
A large proportion of these new houses are required purely due to the out of control immigration to this country. This can’t be stopped or even slowed legally as long as we are in the EU. The only logical answer is to leave this bureaucratic money squandering and undemocratic body and regain control of our borders, taxes, laws, jobs (8 in 10 of all new jobs are going to migrants) and housing.
Our current councillors are part of the problem, as they belong to political parties that insist on staying in the EU at all cost against the majority wish of the electorate. Despite past broken promises otherwise, these parties manoeuvre at every opportunity to deny voters a referendum on membership.
If Exonians want to do something to stop the over-development of Exeter, they should consider voting for the United Kingdom Independence Party (UKIP). A UKIP Exeter City Council won’t change the world or Government Policy overnight, but every UKIP Councillor voted in will act as an unmistakable message to our cosy political establishment that enough is enough, and they certainly will be no less hardworking or diligent than the current incumbents, rather the opposite.”
