Secretary, accept the boundary of the proposed Brendon and Wiveliscombe Ward but object to the name. 1 Wiveliscombe is clearly recognised as the Rural Centre for the Ward and therefore its name should appear first as in the neighbouring Wards of Dulverton and District and Milverton and District. Wiveliscombe has over half the population of the Ward and people searching for it would naturally look under "W" rather than "B". 2 A number of the Parishes included in the Ward are not in the area of the Brendon Hills and it is clearly illogical to put that name first for them. Examples are Ashbrittle, Stawley, Bathealton and Fitzhead.

  • Aiming for Another Green
    Covering: Bishops Lydeard, Ash Priors, GREEN viewCombe Florey, Cothelstone, Crowcombe, Halse, Lydeard St South Quantock Lawrence, Tolland, West Bagborough Clive Martin Aiming for another green win Clive Martin – Local campaigner Clive Martin will be standing for the Green Party in May’s council elections, having previously stood as parliamentary candidate for the Green Party in 2015 and 2017. Clive moved to Bishops Lydeard over 20 years ago. His 2 sons were educated locally and he was a governor of the primary school for 10 years (6 of those as Chair). He has been a parish councillor in Bishops Lydeard for the last 8 years and is currently Vice-Chair. A keen supporter of Bishops Lydeard Football Club, in his 50s he played regularly for Bagborough Cricket Club but eventually had to retire as even the Sunday Friendly XI did not need a non-batting, non-bowing, non-fielding “all rounder”! (“One of the worst players ever to represent Bagborough CC” – Martin King). He’s also a Clive with Molly Scott-Cato member of the local amateur dramatic group and is rumoured to have played the (MEP for South West) Dame in the pantomime on several occasions. Clive’s local campaigning has involved work in the area for Quantock Eco urging people to take advantage of insulation deals and trying to set up a local “produce fair” with local farmers and gardeners. Martin Dimery, currently a Green Party councillor on the Somerset County Council: “As Green Party councillors we make the difference by bringing environmental issues to the top of the agenda.
