Happy #internationalwomensday to our incredible team of women past and present busy building the community they want to see. We're incredibly proud and grateful for all you do. #Devon #Buckfastleigh #Bovey #Bridgetown #Ashburton
Thank you very much.
That's really interesting. I'm in Buckfastleigh Devon where it looks like our early social housing is pre war. Like lots of rural places, they were to support industries like mills, foundry & quarrying not agriculture.
The #ruraleconomy is more public sector, education, health, real estate, distribution, transport, accommodation, food, manufacturing, construction, wholesale, retail, motor repair, & professional, scientific, technical services than it is agriculture, forestry and fishing.
Oh wow! That's amazing footage.

Happy new year to me! I have my office room back.
The road at #Torcross is officially closed and the sea is roaring even at low tide. Definitely avoid as the tide is rising. The size of the rocks it has shifted is terrifying.
Happy Christmas John.
I saw loads too, plus a lot of ganets all further out where the sea was whipping round Berry Head towards the harbour. Must have been a nice shoal. Thank you for helping me id them.
Thank you for that. I was there yesterday and wasn't quite sure I'd seen 40+ GNDs but it seems like I perhaps did!
Happy #nationalrobinday to all those who celebrate.
Mine and Phil @thejunebrides.bsky.social of the same.
And outstanding bravery and principles from the civil servant behind the expose. www.theguardian.com/society/2024...
A grey #Dartmoor day.
With that there Phil @thejunebrides.bsky.social when we were both young and gorgeous! Why does no one tell young people?
Grey seals at #Brixham Harbour today.
Teeny tiny fungi day.
βSupernormal profitsβ of Britainβs biggest housebuilders - News - Cardiff University share.google/v5t0ddeJfKgd...
"The analysis from Cardiff University and Henley Business School shows how Taylor Wimpey, Barratt Developments and Persimmon used the risk of withholding housing supply to renegotiate contributions to local authorities and win government subsidies."
"The three largest housebuilders used their market power to deliver abnormally large profits and gain an advantage over competitors without dramatically increasing their levels of housing supply, a report shows....
Brilliant stuff Clare!
Wow!
Stupidly good in the south #Devon woods today. #fungi
I found them today too! Carried one all the way through the woods to show Phil and then dropped it at the last moment! We did get these though.
The only reasonable thing to do with freshly foraged porcini of this quality. #salt-n-pepa #letstalkaboutceps
Kruger's work on 'social covenant' is liked by centrists. Akin to #BigSociety and #communitypower - masking corporate power and hollowing out of welfare state - it sees to shift burden of public services onto communities, especially poor, under the guise of empowerment.

I'm not on LinkedIn any more. Are you able to share the text here? I agree, there's far too much complacency and lack of urgency in policy making and delivery.
The realities of rural transport means that young adults can't access training or work. And this isn't in the middle of #Dartmoor, it's alongside the busy A38 between Exeter and Plymouth. #rural #inequalities #PlymouthMarjon #Bicton #Exetercollege #Stagecoach #Devon #DevonCountyCouncil
